transHello, I'm a newb. I'm hoping you guys can help me by answering some questions. I have some transgender friends, one FTM and one MTF. Both are in various stages of transformation. While I know what they've gone through, I don't know where to start getting help for myself.
My sex is female, my gender is neutral. I think I would be a lot happier if my sex could be male or neutral. I believe gender is entirely determined by society. I constantly feel the pressure of misogyny. I identify as neutral because I don't want to be put in a box and have people say, "You're a girl, therefore x must apply to you." I think if my sex was male I would feel a lot less looked down on, however I know the people around me could not continue to love me if I got a sex change. I think I've summed it up to this: if I could look relatively androgynous, and get my uterus removed, I think I could be happy. I guess I'm here to ask if that's a reasonable goal. Has anyone else experienced this? Anybody else here feel gender neutral? I guess I just need some hope that this can happen, because as far as I can tell from a birth control perspective, no doctor would be willing to sterilize me until I was 40 and had three kids, let alone have a major surgery involving the removal of my uterus. Thanks for reading.
