I don't feel very good right now. I'm one year and some change on HRT. It's been a wonderful experience so far and I love being a girl. I know that I'm trans, and I'm reminded by "why" every time I go home and I'm forced to boymode.

Unfortunately that's little comfort to the complex feelings of starting to feel erectile dysfunction (ED). I just had sex with my trans girlfriend and she didn't have much left. I can't ignore this feeling I'm on that same path eventually.

I want some sort of function either male or female. Even though I still wish I was born with a vagina. It pains me to even think about going off HRT though. I love being a girl too much and I don't think I could present fem without HRT. I still have most all of its function but it doesn't stay up for as long.

It's a completely irrational feeling that I hope will be solved eventually with SRS, but that's probably 10 years away and I just learned how to be sexual 2 years ago.

The world is heading into worse climate change, things will get horrible for future generations with potentially billions dying across the globe and society collapsing.

Is that a world you would want to bring a child into? If you want children look into fostering or adopting those who are already in need of love and support.

You can keep your erection with use. You don’t need semen for being sexual, only for reproduction.
