are there TS girls that actually really like going top?

^I wonder if our members in the UK realize what an advance it is just to have a national health system that includes "Gender Identity Clinics" -- even if they are not always focused in the best way. In the United States, one is truly lucky to have healthcare coverage that includes just about anything.

How wonderful the world would be if someone needing counseling, or physician assistance, for a "gender identity" issue could get it as a basic human right, without having to worry about the cost on top of all the other things that would occupy the mind at a time like that, anywhere in the world!

Totally agree.
The NHS is supposed to be a safety net, for all.
But it get milked all over,
including gender clinics.
I've a friend who is at one of the clinics
Trying to talk the GIC into financing a boob job.
She has an income of ?80,000 = $120,000 per year.
Yet she is still trying to milk the system for a free set of tits.....

But if its important enough to you,
You will find a way to pay for it.
I only used the NHS shrinks, as they will say you are deluded, & should be locked up.... if thats the case....coz they get paid regardless.
And I'd rather know if I've Ts stuff going on, or alternatively have a mental disorder.
Private shrinks, I don't fully trust as its in their financial interest for you to keep going.


Its all down to priorities.

I financed trans stuff almost totally by myself. {whoring}
[You do whatever you need to do]
I made the decision to sacrifice other things in life.

Face & body hair removal, hormones, surgeries....probably the equivalent of maybe ?30.000 [$45,000]
Thats a big deposit for a home or a top of the range Porsche.
I live in rented & drive a 7 yr old fiat punto.
I'm far from poor, but could have milked the NHS system to pay instead.
This is too important.

It's called pride & showing yourself how committed you really are.

[This stuff really only applies to uk trans,
but to trans the world over, if you want it enough, you will find a way]

well respect to you for doing it that way, although it would be great if the nhs provided such services for free, i would rather that money was put towards cancer research/drugs etc, i'm not belittling the struggle you lot all go through on a day to day basis though.

i know you get loads of porno and escorts who go top, but as some of you said, it does seem to go against the way these girls feel about themselves, although yeah what is weird to one person is just kinky to another

whatever floats ya boat!

The beauty of it is ... there's plenty of money for both. It's just that it's spent the wrong way, like on aircraft carriers, and tax cuts to multinational corporations, and so on, and so on, and so on ...

Umm very lucky people in a post code lottery have a chance of some useful support. If your serious about transition, i mean do not want to watch a waiting listhen of years tick by... t you have to look to go private though, its as simple as that!

^ Of course, it is very, very, very, very far from perfect. My point was about the "enlightenment" (for want of a better word) that comes with having a healthcare system that at least recognizes gender identity as something worth, well, recognizing.

Sure I appreciate that :-)
