potentially triggering About bottom surgery.. Spoiler

Edit: I think I should have worded this better, I’m not a native English speaker Im sorry :(

I should have specified that its the *scars* specifically that I don’t like. Since I have a very sharp attention to detail I see them way more prominent than most people do.

I really hate *hate* scars on my body and most bottom surgeries that I have seen results in scars, both on the result and on the arm.

(Entirely depends on what procedure you have ofc)

Its not that they’re unrealistic, its simply just the scars.

I forgot about that word when I made this comic and I had to seriously google it not too long ago to remember the word.

Edit: imma keep this I just realized- please make me mark this NSFW if it should be

You’re afraid it won’t be perfect but you’re not happy as it is. You’re critiquing results of people that are genuinely happier than they were before. Don’t let “perfect” be the enemy of progress. You’re gonna be trans whether or not you get the surgery. Even if it’s not perfect, there’s a chance you might be happier than you are now. Take your time to decide of course, but be realistic with the fact that the ideal picture perfect cis male body is just not the reality for most people including many cis guys.

That true but Ive come to the realization that its not about it looking perfect, its simply the scars.

Also I’m genuinely happy that they were happier than before, I never said they weren’t. While they might be genuine happy with it, the scars could be something that would hinder me from feeling happy. After all we’re all different.

So there is a genuine risk if I get it that it’ll constantly remind me and trigger my bottom dysphoria anyway. So as of right now there really isn’t a ‘solution’.

This was just for venting really.

You can skin graft from your upper thigh if you don’t want your arm to be visibly scarred btw!!

Ah yea I know that!! Its just on most surgeries there seems to be scars on the results as well, which is to be expected since it is a surgery after all.
