Is my taiwanese gf transexual?

I've been with the same taiwanese girl for two weeks and I'm starting to think she/he is transexual with total reconstructive sugery. including removal of adam's apple and of course penis...

I'm freaking out...

Is there anyway to tell for sure?

I would not be angry with him/her as I believe she is female on the inside and her choice but I would like to know and feel she wouldn't be honest if I asked her.

Please help!

 

Can't you tell from the vagina?

 

If the surgery is done by a good surgeon, a surgically created vagina looks no different from the outside to any other vagina.

 

Does it have a clitoris?

 

Yes. At least in most cases. Some surgeons who cannot perform the surgery to a high standard will leave it out, but all top surgeons in the field will create a clitoris as part of the surgical procedure.

 

Okay.

Op is in a tough spot then. Straight up asking her might likely upset her. Given that he can't tell he might as well just be happy.

 

If you think she looks like a dude, then why are you with her?

Fake boobs and a somewhat off looking vagina may be a sign. If she is good looking enough for you and you enjoy her company then why be worried about it.

 

I agree. Especially as he's said he sees her as female on the inside anyway, so wouldn't mind. Asking her will very likely upset her whether she is a transsexual or not. Given the situation, he's better off not asking.

Its also worth noting, that genital correction surgery is not just performed on transsexuals. But also on intersex people who want a wrong decision made at their birth reversed, and on females born with no vagina or a deformed one.

 

Of course you could take one of her hair and take it to be analyzed in the lab to reveal if any cells in it had Y-cromosomes as GGs/GFemales has only X-cromosomes ...hey, wait, only freaks do that! Don't be a freak! Besides it costs.

She's pretty, right? She's either a "post-op" or GG? Don't give a shit about it.
Do you feel bothered about this? If not, leave it man. Go building your relationship with her - especially when you're not even sure if you're right anyways!

Besides, Taiwan isn't really famous for having "TS-culture"...some countries have more of them and some have less. Taiwan would be in the category of having less. The odds are with you here.

Personal advice is, that in any case continue with her. Does the possibility of her being a TS make her inferior? NO! Total opposite, it makes her better and more intelligent - according a study "transwomen" are generally pretty intelligent people, above average female population. Between us, they're probably better in bed as well.

 

I would imagine (although it might depend on the country) that having someone else genetically tested without their knowledge, unless it was in the medical interests of the patient, would be illegal. I had genetic testing done a while ago, which confirmed that I was born with an intersex condition. And have XX chromosomes. But I had to give consent to those tests being done. I dont think someone could just walk into a laboratory/hospital off the street, and ask to have someone else's DNA tested. I don't think that's legal. Only the police could ask to have someone else's DNA tested.

Also, it is possible for born women to have a Y chromosome, (and for born males to be XX) so just having a Y chromosome doesn't automatically make you male. For example, women born with Swyer Syndrome are born with a vagina, are brought up as girls, and look like "genetic women". But are in fact also born with an XY chromosomal setup. Its not as simple as XX=female and XY=male. Although most people wrongly believe this is the case. Plus, there are many other chromosomal setups that exist apart from XX and XY. Most people believe that these two chromosomal setups are the only ones in existence. Which is not true. Gender and even physical sex cannot be measured purely by chromosomes alone.

 

Test her chromosomes.

Also a whole two weeks of dating isn't the milestone where you bring up a painful and emotional part of your past.

 

There's no way he could do this without her consent, as far as I know. Though even if she does have a Y chromosome, that on it's own would not be enough to class her as a "male". For reasons I stated in my previous post. Certain intersex conditions are quite rare, but an estimated 1 in 100 births are babies born with a body that differs in some way from the standard/typical male or female. Which makes physical sex anamolies much more prevelant than cases of people who are transsexual. Even though transsexualism is generally much more known about by the public than intersex conditions are.

Also, there are some transwomen who will never bring up that aspect of their pasts, for fear of both suddenly being seen as a man, and of possible violent repercussions. I actually think the longer a transperson knows someone, or is in a relationship with someone, the less likely it is that they will declare they are transsexual. As there is far more to lose, and far more potential damage will be caused, than if they met someone on the basis of being transsexual. So waiting for the off-chance (if she is trans) that she might do that, is futile, as he could be waiting literally forever for that to happen. I think all the people who said he shouldn't ask and just leave it are right. He already said it wouldn't bother him anyway, so asking that is only going to cause distress to his girlfriend, whether she is trans or not. It won't change how he feels about her. Or so he says. That's if the OP isn't a troll, which considering he hasn't been back to these forums since making this thread, is a decent possibility.

 

ask to see baby pictures.

 

Babies mostly look the same, regardless of gender.

 

wow interesting predicament. Did you find anything new out yet?
