Do any of you guys know anything about the long term effects of these hormones some T Girls take? I mean, it seems that once a T Girl turns 35 and up, they just dissapear... Now, I know the sex trade that most of these girls are in, is for the young ones, but just wondering..Most T girls u ever see that look like they may be older, often times look pretty rough...Comments?
I totally agree with you, it accelerates their age I think for every tgirls aging is about 3 to 1 once they begin hormones. You see it. Just look at their biological black female counterparts. They rarely age that fast, think about your moms and grandmoms and how good they look at higher ages. Black don't Crack is an old adage.
I think the combo of hormones and other chemicals to reverse nature are devastating as time moves on.
I'm going to have to beg to differ with you two.
If anything not taking estrogen will aid in causing a transwoman to
look older than she is.
If a woman who is in the sex industry doesn't stick to her hormone
replacement regimen because her clients want her to be functional and
to be able to "skeet", then she may find that she will become a victim of
the ravages of the male hormone testosterone.
Testosterone can cause hair loss, balding, a roughening of the skin, improper
and male skeletal development and male patterns of fat distribution on a woman.
Long term HRT can however impact the transwoman and her liver and kidneys
which metabolize the estorgen, and androgen blockers if she is on those.
Thus many transwomen will cycle their HRT regimen on a 3 week on 1 week
off cycle.
I think peggygee answered you're question very well but you do raise a good point.Quote:

We could take the easy route and write it off to drugs/sex/disease, but I don't think thats entirely accurate.
Ive always thought it was the fast lifestyle, but does that account for the high percentages of girls disappearing off the face of the earth before their 30s?
I will try to answer for the AARP segment or the "Geritol gang". :eek:Quote:

They go stealth or even deep stealth and assimilate into mainstream society.
After years of HRT, many surgeries, perhaps even GRS, they are able to blend
into society and be undectable.
I can say for me that as a pre op I didn't hang out in trannytown, and that is
still the case as a post op.
It was always my goal to transition and be the woman that I was meant to be
and not to forever be a transsexual.
2. Some older transwomen de-transition. Due to them not adhering to their
HRT regimen they may have masculinizesd over the years, and being a
transwomen isn't as viable an option as it once was.
Perhaps in this youth obsessed society they may no longer be in as much
demand, or that they no longer escort or do porn shoots and you may not see
them as much.
If they were in the bar scene they may have grown tired of that and you
won't see them there.
3. I would assert that there are transwomen all around you that you may not
be aware of.
Most transwomen don't want you to know that they exist. http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l2/magi43/Alien41.gif
All good points... Ive always just wondered, what hapens to a T girl when she gets older, and couldn't help but to think that the hormones had some bad long term effects, and they go into isolation...I really would like to hear more from some of the girls on this site, as to if they worry about the long term effects, and what kind of plans do they have once they are no longer young, hot, and sexy....
Good points.Quote:

What bothers me is that most girls aren't going for that in these days. That ends up effecting the communities view on how to live like a real woman IMO. Also, on how admirers see the TS. So many TS claim they are a real woman and miss what that really means. Back in the day, most girls always used to talk about SRS and moving on with life. Nowadays, a lot of girls try to make escorting a career until someone "saves them" or whatever. I would like to see more girls transistion into the real world better THEN come back and school the next generation on how to do it when they are done with their entertainment careers. Too many girls get to new levels in their life and leave behind their own people sometimes. We as a community do that a little too much, not just the TS.
Peggy - I think what you said is true but do you think that makes up the majority of why girls aren't around after 35? I have failed to find much evidence of that in years compared to the more negative outcomes.
Of the woman that I came up with, that I knew back in the day, I am the onlyQuote:

Due to losing my friends, not really feeling a connection to the trans
-community because of it's negativity, infighting, shadiness, and my desire to
assimilate into the mainstream, I have been in a self-imposed exile for
decades.
But at my core I am a radical, a revolutionary, and have always been
concerned with the equal rights of all people.
And while you most likely won't see me on the 6 o'clock news marching in a
trans rights parade, I have come back to aid the cause in some small way.
But just a regular woman was what I always desired to be, and that is what I
have achieved, and I am more than willing to help any other woman obtain
that, if that is what she desires.
Dirty,
it's a sign of the times fam. I hate to say it but most of these girls are not that bright. I mean, they are smart enough to get money now, but aren't really smart enough to maintain money for after the tricks stop calling and logging into their websites.
Sadly, the real problem is these girls are gonna end up like most dope boys I know. I was one of them but I got out and did something with my money. Far too many of them will end up ass out. Didn't cash they chips in when they had the opportunity to. They go through their entire 20's and early 30's having gained no real job experience, no trade, no college...nothing to build on a resume. You find yourself at 35, still in the game, not realizing that the game has passed you by and you have no options. Now you're just another pawn, another has been, another customer.
Sorry for the off topic tangent...shit just gets under my skin because I have seen a few bright ones fall victim to the "get money now" ideology.
