Probably! I can see it now... 20 years from now, no one will be left in the world who is straight. If they are, they will be in a closet. ;-)

We fell asleep and began to dream when something broke the night
Memories stirred inside of us - the struggle and the fight
And we could feel the heat of a thousand voices
Telling us which way to go
And we cried out "Is there no escape from the words that plague me so?"

And we were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea
Yes, we were drawn to the rhythm
Drawn into the rhythm of the sea

Not a bad deal since I've not tried to recruit... a new toaster would be handy! Hopefully it does bagels...

Is he FTM or MTF? Not that it really matters, but you for some reason don't see as many FTM's. I find that to be interesting.

Mtf... the numbers are about equal. Ftm's taking hormones pass very very well, and aren't likely to be as noticeable.

===============

I don't know about that. anything out of the ordinary usually get a double take, even if not voiced. I would think ftm would be more noticable since the "society" more aware of male cross dresser and transgender. when they see ftm, their psyche not use to seeing femininity slowly turn into masculinity vs. mtf changes.

maybe it's me being more aware of the end results. *L**shrugged*

Testosterone is a very powerful thing. Some mtf transsexuals can never overcome completely what years of testosterone have done. I'm very fortunate in this regard. For ftm transsexuals, it does not take long before their voices deepen, they grow a lot of facial hair, and they start losing hair from male pattern baldness. As mentioned previously, the gender seminar I attended was easily half ftm trannies, and most of them you would never ever guess were transsexual. I was fooled more than once.


If you have more interest, here is the website of the featured speaker at the seminar... a very interesting presentation to witness in person.
