Trans character
Jan. 6th, 2011 07:58 pmI've written roughly 12000 words of the wedding night between a character who I'm sure is transgendered in some way and the woman who owns him in his viewpoint, and I'm still not sure if I should post it. The character in question was male assigned at birth, ids as male and likes the submissive role that his Family prescribes for men, but he isn't comfortable in his own body. He wants to have hormone treatments to grow breasts and surgery to have his penis and testicles removed - I'm not sure if he wants reconstructive surgery to give him female genitals, and neither is he. The woman's first reaction when she finds out a bit about his issues is to ask if he thinks he should have been born female, and her final conclusion is that he needs to have therapy until he can define what changes he needs to make to feel comfortable in his body.
