The LAST step of Transition!!!

[Poeboi]

Kyle I know this is an old video but I have a question for you. Do you have to get T or the operation to be considered a trans male? I dont have the money for anything major surgery but I know what I am. Am I a female who thinks like a man or am I a man in a women's body? I'm so confused. Am I gender queer? What would you call me? Sorry if I'm asking too much but I respect you so much! Thank you

[alone4lori]

i've been watching your video's and thanks for posting....i start T next week....wish me luck....is that your cat meowing??????BTW--I myself am a recovering Heroin addict.....

THANK YOU FOR THIS...i'm on youtube to try to document my inner 'transition' or feelings around how i i.d., but i often feel like an outcast & like ppl aren't as interested in my vids bc 99% of the trans guys come on here to doc their medical transition (and their vids are on the emotional stuff that comes only once they've started that physical transition).

everything you said makes me feel more at ease with my own process around gender. so thanks :)

[njjordan84]

good luck man..im prayin 4ya

[WishIwasJim]

You're absolutely right mate!

[aryanvaryan]

Haha there's always a cat in the background xD

[mistresspav]

You touched on some really good stuff on this video. I started the more physical side of my tranisition when I was bout 21 and I was under the assumption that all I need was hormones and surgery and I'd be juss fine. Life doesnt stop being life juss because I started a new chapter of it. So I learned very quickly that I HAD to manage all my thoughts and feelings if I was going to be a happy and sane guy. With that knowledge I am a happy person. Good stuff bro.. you look great btw.

I'm on a new one called Reandron 1000 you should phone 02 97677222 and ask for Professor Anne Conway. They will help you I'm sure :-)

For me Testosterone is Cool. Like when I was a apprentice Fitter/Machinist other guys laughed at me because I couldn't lift things they did and I had to because that was my job.And it makes me think better, I feel healthier with it. Plus I have broken lots of bones. Endrinologists say I need it so more bones dont break saying i'm prone to Oestoperosis <--hahaha i'm a fucked speller :-)

[eliyello]

dude, feed your cat. also, thanks for your truth. i agree - transition is certainly more than just physical.

[jacoblotcky]

Wow, you made some great points there, things I've been thinking too but couldn't put it quite as articulately. It's true that medically transitioning can amplify your problems if you don't have a strong sense of who you are, but for some taking hormones is the only way they'll really know for certain.

I also agree that the internet makes transition out to be more cut + dry than it actually is. It's also hard to document an experience very few of us have words for.

[sambo505]

you are so right Kyle -people in general have to soul search befroe we know anything about ourselves whether it be gender related or not,most of us are looking for a quick fix and dont learntill we are much older that all things are revolving and evolving,sending you an email now about your trip

[shortcutebutch]

right on man!

[damzwarr]

I know what you mean, and with the books and other reading I've been doing lately on psychology and brain development... kinda scary to think about really.

[xenokyle]

I absolutely, completely 100% agree with you about that.

I have definitely over simplified things in this vid, but I had real reasons to do so. (I can't disclose them, but suffice to say I was trying to reach a number of ppl I have been in contact with on the net) I just know from my own journey that ANY loophole that would have made waiting unnecessary, I would have grabbed with both hands! It's only after, that you realize what you've gained from having to follow a process.

[winterstarrsnoweater]

I honor your advice. Thanks a bunch! I don't know how to describe how I feel about what you said, but I know it's good.... ^_____^ Good lucck with surgery, and I hope you add me ^_^. I sent you an invite a while back. thanks!! :]

[xenokyle]

Thanks man...just added you, as I didn't receive the invite?? I might have stuffed it up the way things have been lately...who knows!

[nytransguy]

Excellent! Well-said! I agree! (not that anyone else has to agree as well, but personally i do!)Actually I'd hate to think of this just as chemicals and such, it is a lot more to me.. transition took a lot of soul-searching. 5 years living 'transitioned' w/o medical intervention was hard but worth it.

Anyway, good heads-up advice to young ppl about transition.

::There's no right way to transition except the way that is right for you::

[xenokyle]

Cheers mate. You know the mixed feelings involved in advising someone to wait!

Shit...I know as well as anyone how hard the waiting is...it's just sooo difficult to explain to young ppl how important really 'knowing who you are' is!

[7deven]

Thank you. I know that I am in a completely different state of mind at 35 than I was at 25. At 35 though, it is harder to be me and male while seen by others as female. Good luck on you surgery.

[xenokyle]

Yeah I know what you mean...but we all have to be OK with ourselves first without having the external verifications...mind you we are forced to learn to be OK even with constant public rejection and abuse. It's hard to explain why that step is necessary!

Thanks for your good wishes.

[quarterduce]

So far it solved about 99% of my problems

[xenokyle]

You can't be serious?

Have you watched your recent uploads objectively? If you didn't KNOW who you are thru this, there is a chance you wouldn't survive it.

It's those ppl I have been talking to, and to whom this 'simplified' view is aimed.

However, I do understand what you are saying, believe me...6yrs waiting just for the chance to get surgery, never mind the waiting for hormones before that!

[quarterduce]

Yes I'm very serious.

[Jeff06switzerland]

MIAUO...:))

good luck...:)))

[xenokyle]

omg...please don't you start too!! ha ha

Thanks Jeff...long time...hope all is well. Will catch up after surgery...when the ski season is over!

[badone112002]

You always have such great things to say. You speak the truth.

Hope all is going well and I love your cute kitty meowing. Seems your cat has something to say too. :)

[xenokyle]

Cheers Bobby. The damn cat never shuts up! I love her to bits but she is actually talking more than usual, the closer I get to leaving.

And I didn't think it was possible for her to make even more noise...silly me!

God I wish I had a notebook to take with me, I could catch up on everyones vids I've missed lately. It might take my mind off the fact that my parents will have to feed me for the first day....so I've been told!
