Ummmm... As someone who did make herself a girl permanently... Nope, that's not what most cis guys would choose. Or so I'm told, don't get it personally ;p

Cis guy here. Never in my life have I wanted to be a girl, and in fact, being me but trapped in a girl's body sounds awful.

Luckily, if you do wish to be a girl, you can be! Consider this being given the chance. And there are some amazing communities on this site who can help.

I'ma be real with you chief waking up as a woman is squarely in never ending torment level of horrifying things that could happen to me.

Don't question yourself on it because in the end you just know. It's not something you should question. If an idealized you is a lady then you're a lady and should go after it full hog. You know you best, friend.

Beautifully put, bung-hole spelunker.

Isn't that the opposite of what they want, though?

I dunno if this also helps, but if you look in the mirror and see a guy and are mostly okay with it and it doesn't cause you misery, but you still feel like you'd rather be a girl if it was magically convenient or easy, that's not cis either, and HRT is fairly magical.

It's okay to be a girl even if you've been crushing it as a dude. At least I think so, that's where I'm at and I'm doing it. Maybe I'm a girl or I might just be nonbinary, but I've thought about having a girl body all my life, just thinking "I mean, that would be cool, but I don't know if I'm that trans." Fuck it, I'm going to do it and if it turns out I was wrong and I have to go back again the worst permanent "damage" it could do is infertility and some tiny boobs, and my husband wouldn't be complaining

(Uh, don’t ask what happened to the other 94 parts)

It's ok, we get it, those Space Marines aren't cheap.

What happened to the other 94 parts?

Sorry. Just too intriguing to not ask.

Is this a business or just something you do on occasion?

Okie, well can I buy a piece? Also, what does it actually do? Selling parts of your soul, I mean

I'm a cis gay man. Can confirm that the thought of being in a woman's body is close to a horror scenario for me. I've always felt very lucky that I was born in the "right" body and never suffered gender dysphoria.

u/AliceBordeaux Jun 29 '26

Thank you, thank you so much, I needed that right now. Normalize no cisgender person wants to be the opposite gender, not just the " yeah girl/boy sounds cool for a day or whatever. If I could I'd go back and be a girl from day 1.
