Genetic females on metamorphose

From: guest (Jc) , 108 months, post #1

I was just wondering how many natural born females visit this site and have an interest in tg, body swapping etc. I remember a while back there were a few who even posted some pics of themselves (well hope it was actually them and not just some dudes catfishing)

I'd say that the catfish are a safe bet.

I work in the Courthouse and was one of the few clerks that was not creeped out by the TS people coming in for a m2f/f2m Name Change. So I was the guy who talked to them all.

One day I got curious and spent my lunch hour at the University Medical Center Library reading up on gender change. Aside from my surprise that I could still understand the surgical descriptions, the psychological papers were more interesting.

Generally, it appears that men want the entire female package! clothes, boobs, multiple orgasms, lifestyle, etc. Most come back a year later to get a larger vagina made. size queens I guess.

Women, however, almost never want the male package. They want to wear male clothing, dump the breasts and periods then they stop! They want to be neither men nor women but something that is male-appearing & male-acting but with female genitals and still date women.

Thus I suspect that the actual number of real females on this site to be extremely low but the number of female-impersonators/pretenders to be much higher simply because this site caters to actual and total change, not impersonations..

"... Thus I suspect that the actual number of real females on this site to be extremely low "

Seems that you're only considering that the audience here is gender TF/swap based.

Don't forget that we have plenty of transformation aficionados who are interested in animal, inanimate, mechanical, size, age, and many more, rather than (or as well as) gender.

I suspect that we have plenty (albeit, maybe only 15-30% of actual visitors/contributors) who were born into a female body. The thing is, that VERY few of them make that fact known.

Put yourself into their shoes... You've got a female body, and you're on a site where the most vocal participants are men who get sexually exited at the thought of possessing, stealing, or forcing a swap into a body like yours. You have to deal with the lustful leers, jeers, jokes, and thoughts of men around you every dang day. You just want a place to go where you can be yourself without getting harassed by all these "perverts". -- I'd keep my mouth shut and enjoy what little anonymity (and peace) is afforded me in the online world too. :-)

I think there are two likely reasons for why very few women frequent this site. The first is that women who were born women very rarely have paraphilias (the technical term for "unusual sexual interests," or sexual interests in anything that doesn't involve another consenting adult). So they are much more unlikely than men who were born men to be sexually interested in transformations. Also, please note I am not claiming that everyone is here for the sexual aspect of it, just that it plays a role in fostering the interest in transformations (whether overtly sexual or not) for many guys. The second reason is that women just don't seem to visit specialized forums like this one as much as men do. This is speaking mostly from my experience being online for many years, so I could be wrong.

Also, I agree with Jayzie that people who claim to be women born women on here are probably catfishing or, more likely given the purpose of this site, enacting their fantasy of being women. cj's point that women born women would be unlikely to bring that fact up is also probably true. But I would be even more conservative with the estimate and say <1-2% of the active users here were born female.

"... <1-2% of the active users here were born female."

I won't disagree with that at all. I feel that we have some viewers that simply lurk - male and female, without actively participating. :-)

I'm a natural born female, and to be honest it never occurred to me until now that women were such a minority on this site. Admittedly I am one of those visitors that spends the majority of their time on here simply lurking.

Assigned-female-at-birth women who post, or have posted, here is not a countable number. Some will be stealthy, or merely coy, about their gender.

It is changing (slowly slowly), but for a long time, everyone on the internet was presumed to be white, male, and from the United States.

It is a cultural thing. For many men, to be female is to be gendered. To be male is just to be.

For many white folks, to be other-than-white is to have a race. To be white is to be non-racial, just to be.

For many americans, to be from outside the US is to be foreign. To be from the US is just to be.

Women (AFAB or Trans) on internet forums -- particularly in geek culture (gaming, comics, science fiction, etc.) -- may choose not to disclose their gender for a variety of reasons. Being presumed male can have advantages when exchanging information with fan-boys.

I used to post to the Talk Origins usenet newsgroup (under a different handle). When I'd identify as a woman I'd sometimes be accused of lying. More often, I'd get requests for pictures or for my personal contact information. It can be exhausting to have to justify your authenticity as a geek to people who you want to call your allies�

@RikJohnson #3 "Most come back a year later to get a larger vagina made."

I am having a hard time imagining a "larger vagina". It sometimes happens that MTF vaginoplasty results in insufficient depth . and surgical revisions are required. I challenge you assertion, however, that "most" transwomen need this correction after GRS. I suspect that your information is either out-of-date, or incomplete.

As for this about transmen "They want to be neither men nor women but something that is male-appearing & male-acting but with female genitals and still date women." you are simply incorrect.

The sad fact is that the state of the art for FTM phalloplasty is unsatisfactory for many transmen. The surgery is expensive and many techniques produce only a cosmetic penis, not a functional or sensitive organ.

So Ashie what are your interests here? I've always wondered how females view gender issues etc
