Dysphoria is in high gear..

Can't I just transplant my brain into a hot host body with real girl parts (clarified by Tina Belcher as the heart and the vagina)? Come on, science. I know you've got it in you.

Tina Belcher. Isn't that a character on Bob's Burgers?

I don't ever see a brain transplant ever being succesful. I think the body would reject it more than anything and it is not a brain thing to begin with. To me it is more of a psychological thing instead of a nuerological thing.

I know it sux Illuminess. I think everyone though cis or trans has something that they see less than perfect about themselves. Try and focus on your better aspects. You have killer eyes, big. Your face is really feminine. What we have between our legs is kind of messed up but be thankful for what you got or at least try to be. Yeah I am full of shit and sunshine sometimes. But take a step back and this is what usually drags me out of the jaws of dysphoria. I have two legs that I can make look sexy or at least sexy to someone without the dreaded hair. I have two arms that work even though I wish they were a little more skinny I have seen women with bigger arms. I'm a little overwieght for a woman my height but it kind of adds a little to the boobs and makes me more soft instead of senewy and cut muscle wise. But I am only ten pounds overwieght for the average woman. I read a while back that the average female wight in the US is 165 pounds and the average male wieght is 195 pounds. So at 5'9" at 175 pounds I am right on the average female wieght for my hieght. So maybe body styles are going back to the renasance era. Times change. All of this is mental. All of it is Psycholgical. When the Dysphoria beast hits me then I usually write female and male pros and cons. there are way more pros than cons. The penis is a con but that don't stop me and hasn't stopped others and hell it ain't stopping me now. some other things is that I have no big blemishes on my face in the way of scars or a big wart on the nose. My nose is a littlle too big for my taste but there are women with bigger noses than me.

I know it sounds like Bullshit and I may be in the same frame of mind as you are in right now next week. I may need a lift up tomorrow even. But just take a step back and think. Then take steps to be more feminine. Even if thos steps are soley Psycholgical. BTW that is where it all starts is in the Psyche. So try to let what is inside shine outward. You got a penis, so what? A lot of guys crave the femininty more than the vagina. So I try to concetrate on the femininity more than what I got between my legs. My penis don't define me, my personality does. OSme may like it and accept it and other' may not but I live my life for me and those that are closest to me and everyone else can go somewhere and just leave me alone.

Don't get me wrong  because I am not immune to dyphoria. I break down sometimes. I think we all do or all have. But if you can drag yourself out of the depths of hell or let someone else throw you a rope then you can beat it. Until the next time and then either sclae the walls or hold onto another tope someone throws to you. 

BTW we are stronger than what we think. We are swimming against the current. We have made it this far and we have the strength to make it farther. Times are changing and changing in our favor. Eventually we will be more and more accepted. I mean transgender in the US seems to be gaining groudn. Dr. Oz had Transgender in America on his show the other day. I missed it. So have hope and don't let dyphoria beat you down. Times change and perceptions change. I am older so I may never see full acceptance but I am accepted by those that truly matter. You may be lucky enough to see it. Hell we may both be lucky enough to see it. Society does change it's perceptions when it's forced to. And it is changing more into our favor. Or it seems to be.

Learning, acknowledging and fully expressing yourself is a good thing. I think most folk recognise, respect and honor this when they see this in another person. Friends are scarce, authentic folk are just as rare. Both should be cherished and acknowledged.

Safe travels

What I missed here, and I love the comments in the thread, but what I missed is, are you struggling with it? 

It takes a long time, but as it keeps going, your smile gets bigger too....

There are things that bother me here and there, like looking at my huge hands while I type, having to shave all the time (and still feeling what I couldn't shave). I try to evade mirrors these days.

I've read that given the cost of memory storage that is ever increasing and the cost decreasing rapidly, it's only a matter of time that they think a persons consciousness and memories can be downloaded.
And if it can be downloaded, with the right modifications, it might be possible to load that into a cloned body or even some sort of android thing.
They are looking at it as a way to gain immortality, but still, the idea of designer bodies does come to mind.
Given peoples obsessions with fashion models, various personalities from movies, etc., and Kim's ass,.. I'm pretty sure that most people would go for what they consider to be one hot body.
Personally, I think having more than a few of me in different parts of the world might be interesting, if they can be hooked together, the internal dialogue might be fun to experience.
And it brings up the idea of whether they should all be the same, or just a bunch of different really hot bodies.

That's kind of interesting in an Orwellian sort of way. I mean one Kim Kardashian is enough ain't it?

But the question lies in the whole deal of consciousness. What if the time comes that you don't have to have to be in a body hot or not? Personally I hope this is my last physical life. One is that there is always tragedy in life. Happiness too but tragedy and grief suck. Death isn't actually a walk in the park. It is painful and full of regrets. So even in a hot body, death makes us all ugly after a couple of days. So I would personally rather the smartest of the most intellegent among us to figure out a way to exist consciously without the physical pain. Which I think that may have already been figured out. I jsut have to wait until I die to find out though.

I'm definitely in no opposition to trans-humanism. Technology can be an amazing thing. It can be dangerous, too, in the wrong hands. I think life extension technology is a positive thing. There's nothing wrong with wanting to keep this particular mortal experience going as long as possible. I don't believe death is ever pre-decided. We control our destinies.
