The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

So let's go to the next step. After speaking to your therapist (understandable after this trauma), they tell you that you have options to ease the discrepancy that now exists between your thinking of yourself as a man and your physical state.

They can't restore your penis. But you can take hormones that will lower your vocal register, let you grow facial and body hair again, and reduce your surgically altered breasts. You can reduce them further using a binder. If you continue going by your name (which is male) you'll be able to live as a man again. While you won't have a penis, no one would otherwise be able to tell you were assaulted by this Mengele.


As an aside.....testosterone, the primary male hormone, is made in the testicles, not the penis. So amputating the penis won't feminize the victim.

In addition, there is now penile transplant surgery. Not exactly at every community hospital....but it exists.
