Might i point out that you shouldn't put earrings in your ear holes either. Despite both ear holes and ear piercing holes being holes in your ear they are very much not the same.

Apologies if you raised this previously!

I thought elbows were okay?

Yes, the ear canal/vagina comparison is not exact, but they are both natural functional body parts.

Perforations for earrings or whatever multipost w-n-er uses his for are very different from them.

One of the many problems that occur after giving children puberty suppressing drugs is that , if the poor things decide later on to go down the faux vagina route there may be insufficient material for surgeons to work with when trying to invert the penis to form a faux vagina of a reasonable size. In that case it makes sense ( as much as the whole sad fiasco makes sense) to use viable material which is physically close in placement terms, ie part of the colon. It doesn’t mitigate the other issues including inflexibility, the need to manually clean the pouch to prevent it smelling and the all too frequent issues with urinary and faecal incontinence , but sadly for some it is seen as an acceptable solution.

And no one has any business declaring what, in this scenario, is a viable or even appropriate pathway. This decision is between a woman and her medical team.

"...You have expressed the belief that you are a woman because people “treat you as one”.

I have shared this as one aspect in an answer to "how do you know you're woman?" and other sex realist 10 most common questions regarding the social lives of trans women.

"I have NEVER seen you express any respect for or acknowledgement of the experiences and understanding of female people that might lie outside your own experience."

I assume this is because you choose what to see and squeeze that into your belief system. You choose to evaluate life experience as appropriation. You choose to recontextualise answers and statements about lives within a value system that invalidates the experiences of such people in this space.

There is no other sex realist space like this on the Internet. I am here to understand. Sometimes I need to challenge assumptions to do this.

I can't quite figure out the chicken or the egg order of 'I'm a woman because people treat me like one.' I've never come across people randomly deciding to treat boy/ man as if they were female. I have come across parents who decided to trans their child but not a random selection of strangers, I've also seen people play pretend along with people who are clearly presenting as the opposite sex but your post seems to suggest you were born male then suddenly for no apparent reason society decided you should in fact be female so treated you as if you were female and bam you turned into one.

Is this really what happened? Or did you start claiming to be a woman/ presenting as one and people decided that the bloke in a frock obviously doesn't want to be called sir so 'treated you like a woman' in the sense of using your preferred name/pronouns.

I’m still annoyed that the word vagina comes from the Latin for ‘sheath’, as in the covering for a sword. The learned men of the 1600s decided that the birth canal should be named in honour of the fact that a penis can be put inside it. Plus ça change etc.

Well, no. To be accurate it’s the best way the misguided medical team can cobble something together for the poor young man in the unfortunate circumstances he finds himself in.

From what I've read, the colon would not be the first choice. Peritoneal membrane would be the most common donor site.

Thanks for that. I went to Amazon and recoiled from the price for the actual books, but I'll look out for them second hand.

The Kindle versions often go on sale for 99p - £1.99. I got the entire set of Enterprise ebooks for around £25 by waiting for discounts 😬

The website uk.ereaderiq.com lets you track kindle book prices and set notifications for when a title reaches a price you want.

DeanElderberry · 05/05/2026 18:13

I don't have a kindle, and so far have managed without, but I'll bear it in mind.

RapidOnsetGenderCritic · 05/05/2026 18:17

You can read books using the Kindle app, on a tablet for example (and presumably a phone, and probably other devices).

I resisted for years because I prefer physical books but then a period of poor health made ebooks & e-readers the only way I could keep reading so I tried them and now I like them. They’re a good way for getting hold of old titles that have gone out of print or are excessively priced secondhand.

I prefer my Kobo Libra to my Kindle Paperwhite because Kobo are less about chaining the reader to using only their book store in the way Amazon have. And Kobo’s bookstore price matches with Amazon if titles go on sale.

Here endeth the geeky spiel 😊

We live in a world where men cut out parts of their peritoneum to make a hole just for sex. It’s so odd. And we pay for it.

ah, thank you. That's interesting. I wonder does my laptop support it?

Good point, I forgot about that because I never use it. The app works well on an iPad too.

I thought it was a good comparison tbh.
Ear holes and vaginas = natural "holes" that serve a purpose.
Piercings and neo-vaginas = man made holes that serve a totally different purpose.

The purpose is to give the individual the body they want

DeanElderberry · 05/05/2026 18:31

The purpose of the ear canal and the vagina are to enable the body to function.

If they don't work as they should, that's a problem and needs medical intervention.

Wearing jewellery or having a blind sac are optional.

DeanElderberry · 05/05/2026 18:38

'having the body we want' is such a deluded ambition. I mean, I'd like to have pain-free knees, 20.20 eyesight and perfect hearing.

I know so many people with various disabilities and birth defects. We all have the bodies we have. Trying to alter our bodies because we suffer from a mental illness is not a wise ambition. Learning to live our best lives within our own reality is saner and safer.

Trying to force OTHER PEOPLE to play along with our mental delusions is arrogant.

And the problem with eyeglasses or cataract surgery is they provide people with better eyesight. The horror! A body doesn't need eyesight to function.

Do you really think wearing glasses is a similar act to cutting an ever-open hole in a previously healthy body?

That is delusional.

And I'm not sitting here expecting to spontaneously begin menstruating in my late 50s. The culture formed around sex realist beliefs causes members to impose a lot of motivations on trans people that do not exist.

It's as valid a statement as your belief that vaginoplasty serves no purpose.

Thing is, you never were.
