I have wondered how long transexuals live. What with the mutilating operations and the powerful opposite sex hormones that they have to take regularly so that they will not return to their original sexual form, it just seems like they are soing some real damage to their bodies forcing them to take a form that they naturaly do not have. Since there are more transexuals now, it will be interesting to see what will happen to them in a couple of decades. Some of them are in the public spotlight such as Chastity (Chaz) Bono so we my be seeing their ongoing soap operas on our television screens.
Good point. It can’t be healthy. Plus the constant maintenance of shots, numerous visits to the doctors and eventually a surgeon.
It seems to me to be an obsession. Very odd in my opinion and sexuality probably has less to do with it than some underlying issue.
Michael Jackson might be a good example. He was obsessed with his appearance to the point where the doctors had mutilated his body beyond recognition. And after all of the many surgeries, he still wasn’t happy. Apparently, whatever underlying issue he had was never addressed. Just my opinion.
