TRANS FORMATIONS




I was surfing the other day and ran across these images. they indicate some thoughts about transformation. One is concious on an epic level. He is a woman to man post-opt tran (who kept his pussy). The second image is a visual projection of what Norma jean might have looked like today in 2008-had she clutched bitterly to her iconic image fighting the ravages of time every milimeter of way. Buck's (top) transformation represents a huge commitment to his visual identlity as a man- he takes his diet and workouts extremely seriously with noticably successful results. I am not certain how I would feel personally with a partner without a dick-since its the over-all package including the other persons self identification that seems relevant to me more than genitalia. I would assume that he might in fact be rather awsome as a top (with a strap-on), but that of course is merely the extended fantasy he presents.
Norma or Marylin below reminds me that time can and will creep up on all of us, it has for me. We will at some point look in the mirror and realize that something is different, but we wont be able to precisely see what that might be. We will be filled with doubt as we look at a familiar image we have known so well for so many years- and yet something will be strange, other, alien and frightening as we come to the possible conclusion that it may be in fact yourself.
