Castration: DISCUSSION

[Attis]

"Recently Thailand put a temporary ban on castrations for youngsters. Apparently a large number of ladyboy wanna be's have taken this path to avoid spending a lot of money on hair removal and other male characteristics. Sort of taking a short cut to full womanhood.
Castration basically involves the removal of the testicles (the balls). Historically, in China for example, men who were castrated became eunuchs and held important positions in an emperor's chamber.
Removal of the testicles causes the human body to produce less hair, the desire for sex and some other male traits. It is not the removal of the penis. That comes with a complete SRS, sexual realignment surgery or sex change operation.
However the potential ladyboys forget one thing - a growing number of ladyboy customers wish to be screwed - not possible if they've been castrated! ".
hoax or Not ? Someone have already seen a castraded ladyboy ?

Some castrated males retain some ability to have erections hard enough to effect penetration. Even a castrated one who can't get it up might still be able to cum via stimulation of the penis and perhaps some prostate massage done with a finger, vibrator, or another person's penis.
The castrated ladyboy I know personally says "her" small and innocent-looking penis will grow a little if someone "turns her on" ("her" words). She also claims she has "nice cum-cum" if someone; male, female, or another ladyboy, lights her up.
I've only recently met and "inspected" her, so I can't test any of her assertions, but we seemed to hit it off well and I'm fairly sure I'll soon be gathering more empirical data
I don't have a penis to stimulate her with, but she says she likes sex with real females. Well, I AM a female, so there is hope.
I give a fairly complete mention of her in an earlier post within this thread, BTW.

I think it is a question of finding the right balance, for you as an individual, between being able to express yourself as fully as possible and convincingly as possible as a female, without interfering unnecessarily with sexual function - which is after all a part of life!

It depends I suppose how important sex is to you - to me it's important so I won't want to risk interfering with sexual response any more than necessary, by having castration - I don't plan to have full surgery.

many castrated girls are still fully functional ...they just dont ejaculate ... castration does not stop your ability to get erections ...your mind is the key for that . of course it will be harder to maintain and gain erection .. but then there is always viagra to assist

Some figures worth knowing: Like almost every medication, Viagra is not always 100% successful. It is successful in inducing erection in 80-90% of men with moderate erectile dysfunction (minimal vascular/circulatory problems) and only 30-40% in men with severe erectile dysfunction (significant vascular/circulatory problems, hormone deficiency, etc.). It has been noted to be more effective in conjunction with testosterone, and to work better in those with higher testosterone. (In fact, there are a growing number of studies indicating that ED is not as "psychological" in origin as once thought. Young men [30s & under] with persistent ED often have testosterone levels in the bottom tertile of the reference range for testosterone yet slightly above the threshold for hypogonadism.) Injectable erection inducing meds have a better success rate but carry their own complications, side effects, & costs.

That isn't to say viagra or another ED med simply won't work for a tgirl with low testosterone for whatever reason. It is only to make it clear that one shouldn't gamble on an assumption that things will work for you. You may still get hard, you may not. YMMV. The safest course is to decide what you value, plan how you might handle a situation like ED, and find out as much as you can until you feel comfortable with the decision.

Thankyou for shedding some light on what is a very controversial and complicated subject.

so true

[sweetbottom4u]

Me I have never wanted to penetrate a male. So I think that having this done is something I'm going to check into. Tammy

[StellaDixxie]

I'm totally down, please take my balls. How much does it cost anyways? I've been wanting to do it and replace them with silicone. Still on the fence about Srs but I have no love for my balls. If you have any idea of the cost send me a message on Facebook please.

[JodieTs]

Did you read racquel's post #420 on 12-04-2010
& my long post on this thread #423 on 12-04-2010.
You didn't? Oh for fraks sake, Stella. We wrote it specifically for you; get a grip.

Ok here we go, (again)

Use $1500 as a ballpark figure.
Day surgery, local anaesthetic.
{Budget a lot more if you elect for an overnight stay}
Prob a urologist who has experience with transsexual women. (for that read: has performed orchis on Ts's )
You need a doctors authorisation letter ok'ing this. Or surgeon won't operate.
The doc will have to be a psych specialised in treating GD (gender disphoria). They will use the same diagnostic method used for a patient wanting SRS. Namely, you have sought this consistently for 12 month minimum and have considered all repercussions:
Probable loss of sex function
Loss of reproductive capability
Patient aware that they are then on oestrogen for life or testosterone for life or a specific drug for life that prevents osteoporosis.
That the patient is not a mentalist. ie someone who is a nutter rather than a sane balanced normalish person. For Fraks sake, don't tell your psych that you are requesting medical advice via Facepalm postings, enticed from a tranny sex fetish forum. (say that and they will throw away the key)

Looking at your post, you are delusional or desperate. If the latter, I hope this post helps. Go to a proper trans support site. Frak, us lot here could be anyone giving you wrong or dangerous advice. Apart from me that is. I've gota responsible job.





Remember, this is the Internet:
where men are men, women are men,
and I'm actually a 13 year old schoolgirl pretending to be an
under-cover FBI agent, pretending to be an Escort.

The Bureau accepts no liability, for the consequences of following any "advice" given out by Jodie.


Don't Blink!

After both Jodie's and Racquel's interventions, it seems like there is almost nothing more to say on the subject, at least on the serious mode. Ladies, you both posted some of the most informative texts that I've ever read on this. Thanks a lot.
As far as I'm concerned, I really love that tiny bit more of femininity that the absence or reduction of the testicules brings to the look. And as someone said in a post, it does make the penis look cuter... Moreover, it is one more testimony to the incredible dedication of transsexual women to achieve their goal, a dedication which personally I never cease to admire. It's not just the beautifull look of a ts that seems so appealing to me, but also this irreducible desire for feminity. Takes a lot of intelligence, ressources and personallity, not to say anything of the efforts in themselves. I admit that's one thing that really gets my drive going. Hope i don't seem to weird for that...

I don't know when it'll happen, but I am excitedly looking forward to having my unwanted "family jewels" removed, someday.

Oh my......on the contrary. To me Dan, what you said above makes you more attractive........not less (or weird, as you put it).

[SilverSabre]

Suddenly I noticed that some girls have really pale skin. Like Mandy, Sarina, Ana, Hime and some more I can't remember
Can those two things- skin pigmentation and hormone level be somehow related?

Thank you kindly, lady Alana. You don't see it, but I'm blushing...

Women in general tend to have paler skin than men. I suppose it has to do with this greater quality of skin, which comes from the effect of hormones, a more delicate and sensible skin constitution. Women in ancient Greece tried their best never to stay too long under the sun, as this quality was viewed as an important part of women’s aesthetic. They wanted, as any woman does with the use of make-up today, to accentuate this difference, to help biology a little. Yet, in general, the ratio in skin tone is not radical nor extreme; it's just a bit of a milder shade or tint.
I guess a paler skin therefore might possibly have something to do with the greater effect of hormones in these ladies, but all in all I suppose that they had a tendency to have a paler skin before their orchidectomy, as something natural belonging to their idiosyncratic biology.

Many consider transgender people through hard movies and pictures. This is only the emersing part of the iceberg. Many TG across the world live as women, part or full time. They do not mean hard sex and care little of being watched. Having the testes removed is a matter of comfort in the panty, and a step to SRS. Sure, it helps lowering the testosterone level in blood, but not in full, since the adrenal glands still produce some. In addition, reduction of body hair, and specially the beard is a myth.
