Where do I put this fire...
Jul. 31st, 2008 01:26 pmI was looking up hysterectomies...
The removal of otherwise healthy ovaries is a form of castration because it involves removal of the female gonads
...is it sad that doesn't bother me?
But if I did have a hysterectomy, I wouldn't want my ovaries removed. Just the uterus. As far as I've read, the uterus produces very few hormones, at least compared to the ovaries, and it would solve the period problem. Y'know, like periods that decide to go on vacation the month after I go on vacation.
Yeah. I ain't happy with my body right now. But truthfully...I've been thinking about this a lot.
I...*huff* Okay, if you've seen The L Word. Lisa. 'I'm a lesbian-identified male'. And he likes to have sex the way lesbians have sex, even though he has the equipment to do otherwise. I think Lisa is probably the closest to me, I.D. wise. I would never be comfortable being pregnant, I don't like my breasts...and...I mean, being male doesn't mean you have to be masculine.
I really don't know what I'm saying here. Or maybe I just can't find the word for it yet. So...yeah.
