How often do you think “I should have just stayed normal and had kids”? Be honest.
>>41194126never, having kids has never been something I wanted and it's better to try for something I might not get than accept dissatisfaction imo
>>41194126Never i dont like women so i wouldnt have had kids either wayHrt got me a man so that worked out
semi-regularly. I assumed I wouldn't be miserable if I fell for the 'b urself' meme. turns out it was a lie.
>>41194126>should have just stayed normalSometimes>and had kidsNot often
>>41194126Only when I'm feeling particularly lonely, which isn't actually that often. And it's almost always followed by the thoughts of "and then one day i kill every single one of them for trapping me away from a happy life". I care more about my transition than a conventional life I guess.
>>41194126if i werent trans i would be gay so i wouldnt be straight or have kids anyway
>>41194126I couldn’t before and I doubt they would let the mentally ill bottom no matter how stable my husband would be to adopt
>>41194126never because i was never normal in the first place and im not delusional about that
i had the thought but i have unironic brain damage and enough self awareness to not want to fuck up a future humans existence.
I was raped by a woman and forced to have a kid before I became infertile from hrt, so my only wish is that I started HRT years earlier
>>41194126Nah. I realized that my pre-transition desire for children was actually rooted in a desire for control over another being and moulding them in my image. That simultaneously became less valuable to me over time, but also I found better ways to fill that need in life.That said, I am getting old enough where the fact I will "die alone" is a foreseeable prospect. That itself doesn't concern me or cause existential angst or anything like that. Rather, it's a practical thing I need to think about and plan around. So I'm thinking of looking for a family lawyer 20-ish years younger than me and assigning them power-of-attorney. Then go out for coffee and shit once a year and make sure this guy or girl still understands me as a person and my values in life, rather than just a retainer fee to be discharged with the minimum work necessary.Starting to realize why old white men golfing with their lawyer is a meme.
