I love this place, just gotta say. The only other place I see people talking about this stuff is on Facebook, and if anybody ever questions anything or says anything rudely as a joke- or seriously- it always quickly devolvs into name calling, slurs being used, misinformation being thrown around, etc. (Not at me, I'm just talking about conversations I have seen in comment sections on topics related to this.)

Here is the only place I can go and listen and learn from people without all the extra ignorant bullsh*t throw in.

Now I am a little confused myself. I am biologically female. Ever since I was young, I would think about what it was like to be a guy. I was a tomboy growing up. Even with the recurring thoughts of what it would be like, it never occurred to me that I was anything but a cis- female until I was about 14. Long story short, I wish to have a penis. Now, some of the other characteristics of men I would also like: more muscular strength in general, height (I'm 4' 11" and I hate it so much), the fact that you can walk down the street without fear of being kidnapped (much less than a small woman would have to worry). But I mostly just want my genitals changed. I am a virgin and the only reason is because of what I was born with. Whenever I think about sex, in my head I always have a penis, whenever I masturbate, same thing. I don't really know what I would be considered. I don't really know what I am. Am I trans and should just get a whole sex change eventually (I can not live my life without at least having my genitalia changed)? Is there a way to only have my genitalia changed and have the rest of me be the same? Is that not possible or just weird?
