Live Transmission - My life as a transgendered musician

Trollheart · 12-27-2011, 07:12 PM

Fair play to you! You've finally figured out that it's not a disease to be trans, that you don't have to suffer, that you can actually enjoy it. You may even enjoy the transition, should you choose to go ahead with it. That I know nothing of, but I'd imagine apart from everything else it's exciting, almost like being born again.

Glad you're not depressed anymore, as that does no-one any good, and just helps alienate you from people who want to help. Of course you can be a woman and act, even dress like a man if the mood takes you, but then the other side of the coin is you can get all dressed up when you want and no-one will, or should, judge you. In essence, you can have the best of both worlds.

One piece of advice though, if you do go through with the sexual reassignment: lose the beard!

Be well

Just read this blog from start to finish. I was glad to get to the end of it and see that you're doing a lot better. Not that I really doubted you. From the moment I read about a failed suicide attempt, I knew everything would turn out okay. The fact that you're still alive means you want to be alive on some level. It's easy to die when you think about it. I don't know if I really can, but at the very least, I feel as if I can relate...

I'm younger than you are, but like you, I tried to kill myself a couple years ago. Won't go into the reason, but I was convinced that I wasn't meant to be and that I was hellbound. I still sometimes think I am hellbound depending on when you ask me (right now I don't) but even when I think so, the thought doesn't even bother me at all. Hasn't in a long while. After all, it doesn't change what I would be doing right now.

Cheers, and a good new year to you too,
Bullet

this is strange since I thought England is a much more open country

i came out in a lawyers thread recently myself about my bisexuality - it didn't go down well at all, lots of derisions and i have since unsubscribed to that group

I know most have no interest in Thai music here but there is a nice story which might be relevant to this thread, that of Bell Nunita.

Latest News on Bell - Bell Nuntita aka Nuntrita Khampriranon official website

This page has a brief interview and news about her success with videos. Her song at the end of last year would be one of my 100 favourite Thai melodies of the year, which means something to me as I consider Thai pop to be as great as anywhere over the last 10 years. Probably not your kind of music as it's very un-punk lol, but still a nicely crafted ballad.
