Transsexuals Who Re-Transition

[theone1982]

While looking at the Lisa Lawer thread, I realized it's pretty common knowledge in the scene that she went back to living as a man. I also heard about a fair amount of other transsexuals, particularly Brazilian, who re-transition from men to women and then back to men. Some examples include Aline Bane, Angel Ferrari, and Meelynah Weelyans, shown in the pics below. Much of the reasons that are given, again in Brazil, are religion and family not accepting them as women so they change back. How common is this? What are some of the reasons for re-transitioning besides the ones I mentioned?

The nude girl that Bob took a picture of transitioned back?! Why? She's beautiful and could probably take her pic of any guy she'd want.

...My burning question of late has been whether TS escorts (or TS websites) have seen any measurable increase in business thanks to Yasmin's appearance in a blockbuster movie? Maybe it's way too early to gauge.

I got a video of Aline Brathio and her sister Erica. Cute girl.

Great question, but I think you'll have to ask the likes of Paulistano or Louie Damazo directly to get a view based on direct experience of the Brazilian social context, which seems uniquely two-faced, even in the charged macho environment of Latin America.The two responses that seem to be common are violence and hypocrisy, which must go some way towards explaining the generally low esteem in which Brazilian tgirls are held in, certainly if reviews here are a yardstick - given the barriers they have to deal with at home, it's hardly surprising.

What I'd like to know, besides what the incidence of re-transition is, is how much religion has a part in re-transition. Latin America is also a part of the world in which the catholic church continues to wield huge social and political influence.

I guess if you take Lisa Lawer as the obvious case in point, it seems that she simply fell in love with a woman and they both seemed happier to settle down in a conventional marriage with clear male and female roles.

It happens. I have a friend here in the music business in the UK who was always unashamedly gay and who also fell in love with a woman and is now the proud father of three beautiful children. Have a beer with him and he'll tell you he's still gay, but that he's happier than he's ever been in a monogamous relationship with his wife. Like I said on the Lisa thread, we live in a polymorphous sexual world, and all the better for it.

How about the "men" who change into women, and then back to men again, and then back to women again. I can name a few of those.

As far as the Brazilians go - there are a few things to be aware of here. Firstl, being openly gay is a lot easier than being transsexual so it's not all about family, falling in love with a women, etc. It may be about ease of life. Alongside that, there are a LOT of "transsexuals" in Brazil working on the streets, in porn, who aren't really transsexuals but gay men, who've decided that they can make more money as a transsexual than a gay man, so they transition (incl. surgeries) and then revert later in life back to their male selves.

I'm curious Seanchai, about the 'gay' men whose pose as transsexuals, would a client ever know??

If there a difference in their demeanor or approach to relationships/sex that would be a 'tell'??

I hear girls say frequently that many TGs are simply gay men in drag, and not truly transgendered.

Not that big a deal, but I am a little curious.

I know very little about life in brazil, but i heard someone say once that its easier to be a ts (cause socially adjusted) then a feminine gay men.

I think for quite a few gay men that are feminine its sometimes better to be a ts, and many more seem to know it lately...because of the internet..

Still genderidentity isnt something to toy with..
I have known a girl who got the surgery and Then found out that she was no woman at all...she is now a he again and lives as a guy...

I think of the entire ts population there are actually few girls really born in the wrong body and social genderrole...

When you are just after sex, i dont think you will always know the difference, but the difference might become more clear in a long term relationship...

There have been a few reported cases of women who transition and then have regrets. The Guardian ran a couple of pieces a few years ago.
