Danny: Escaping My Female Body (Part 2)

On the surface Danny is your average 22 year old bloke. He loves fast cars, pretty girls and hard partying. But underneath his clothes Danny hides a secret that he's desperate to get rid of. Danny has a female body, making him a female to male transsexual. Just 1 in 4 transexuals who complete gender reassignment surgery are female to male. This is the remarkable story of how Katie becomes Danny.

I have a question! I know this does relate really, But, I'm supposed to be talking to my doc this coming mouth, And Asking about going on T, It's been a long road for me and I never fully under stood why I felt and thought the way i did till a person told me what was going on and every thing, and the world started making sense, and yet it also got harder.( I'm an FTM ) But any who my question is, When you do go on T does it make you taller or anything?

@ThePopcornbox No. If you've already been through puberty then your growth plates will have fused. Testosterone can cause bone and cartilage to thicken though, which may account for a small amount "growth".

My only question is how did strangers know he was trans to treat him so badly?

[RyanTrainboy]

@Chris188228 I'm guessing he still lives in the area he attended school and where people knew him before his transition.

This guy is brave for going through with this dangerous surgery. Props for him and I hope he has a successful life.

In a related idea, do orthodontists exist in Britain or...

[RyanTrainboy]

@bluelightsaberondesk Yeah, we have orthadontists.

There's one thing I disagree with him on, but this is how I feel personally. I don't think that not having bottom surgery makes us any less male. We are already without without the surgery. I would LOVE to have bottom surgery, but i just cannot afford it. The surgery that I want the most is op surgery. I want these damn things gone!

Hi could you message me Danny's e-mail? I'd really love to speak with him, considering that I'm ftm myself.

[ThePopcornbox]

@RyanTrainboy

Oh, alright. Thank you for answering!

[Chris188228]

@laurelfan1 I agree with you. To me a trans man is a man regardless of what he has going on downstairs. I can totally understand the top surgery being a must though because of how often guys go without shirts.

What the redheaded girl said-that has to have been the most beautiful way I've ever heard someone describe love.

[t12256]

danny my dear that is ur opinion therefore u r entitle to it, i will continue to say it is wrong, it is like u r de-facing what God has fearfully and wonderfully created.on the topic of christianity i will reserve it for someone else, because if u knw the creed of such faith u would not tread that path of trans...

@t12256 no offense, but calling someone close minded to Christianity is pretty close minded yourself. Not everyone is a christian. I'm transgender, and believe me, it's not something that i would have chosen to have. Being trans* is real, not just something you decide to be because you hate your body. Religion shouldn't have anything to do with being able to identify with your physical body.
