It's all confusing to me, but I really would consider getting the full nullification, or radical vaginectomy i think is the word. It would make me so much more comfortable in my body, but I don't know if I'm just confused or... What. I'm definitely not cis but im not trans either, and I love femininity and such. Is it my asexual side speaking out to my body, saying I don't want reproductive organs? Or is it an official gender/sex?
Female Genital Nullification
I suppose technically I am trans because I am bio-female, but I feel more male most days, and neutral the rest, but I also understand that desire to have a perfectly neutral body. Despite feeling more male I absolutely do not want a penis, but I don't want my female reproductive organs either.
Sex, gender identity, and gender expression are different things. Just because most of society is a bit behind in educating people about this doesn't invalidad how anybody feels. Theres more than just male and female in both gender and sex. Gender expression doesnt have to correlate to either. Mix and match the above terms however you want and anyway you do it makes sense because that's how you feel.
I know that neutrois, agender, and genderless are confusing for people to differentiate. With neutrois going in the idea of a complete nullification of the body that it gears more towards your sex rather than the representation of gender.
I am much the same about my body. I don't want a vagina or a penis. When I was younger I used to pretend it wasn't there, and tried to pretend other people didn't have genitals, either. My chest I have more of an ambiguous relationship with. It doesn't bother me too much that it's there, but I absolutely loathe it when people stare. My gender expression isn't really feminine, it's more a combination of masculine/feminine qualities (whatever the hell that means).
I believe in the US and Canada (and probably in most/all developed countries), that you can obtain the surgery legally by yourself when you're 18. As far as finding something inexpensive, that's difficult to do. It's difficult already to find a doctor who is willing to do sexual reassignment/nullification surgery, and in any case, I'd rather shell out a fortune if I had to in order to have someone do it safely and correctly than take my chances with a less expensive operation by a surgeon that I find questionable. Also, it's difficult (at least from what I've read) to obtain a completely sexless body. Labial reduction surgery, hysterectomies, and the like are helpful, but I don't know of any surgery that can get rid of all of it.
Dr. Chris McClung is leading the way in central Ohio for transgender individuals interested in gender affirmation surgery (GAS). He performs both male-to-female and female-to-male surgeries. He also assists with hormone replacement therapy and the management of complications from transgender surgery.
Available evidence indicates that, while few women commit violent crimes, a significant number of those convicted of murder or manslaughter killed a male partner or male family member and have experienced a history of domestic violence. A UNODC Global Study on Homicide found that while only one out of every five homicides (at a global level) is perpetrated by an intimate partner or family member, women and girls comprise the vast majority of those deaths (UNODC, 2018). Victim/perpetrator disaggregations reveal a large disparity in the shares attributable to male and female victims of homicides committed by intimate partners or family members: 36 per cent male versus 64 per cent female victims (UNODC, 2018). Women are significantly overrepresented as victims of homicide perpetrated exclusively by an intimate partner: 82 per cent female victims versus 18 per cent male victims (UNODC, 2018). A 2016 study by Penal Reform International and Linklaters (2016) found that, with few exceptions, criminal justice systems are failing these women by ignoring their trauma and realities/dynamics of domestic violence:
The criminal justice system has historically been designed by men for men, which has often meant that laws and policies fail to consider the pathways to female incarceration and their mitigation (United Nations, 2018; see in particular Module 4) as mentioned in the previous section; and that women encounter particular challenges in all stages of criminal justice system, due to the male-dominated and male-oriented design and delivery of criminal justice services. The table below provides an overview of challenges encountered by women in conflict with the law.
In some countries, drug-related offences are the number one cause of incarceration among women, whereas men are largely incarcerated for other crimes, including violent offences (UNODC, 2018, p. 6). Imprisonment statistics around the world confirm that women are imprisoned largely for drug-related crimes, with national and international anti-drug laws and policies considered a major cause of the rising rates of incarceration of women. In Latin America, the disproportionate effect of harsh drug laws has led to the female prisoner population almost doubling between 2006 and 2011, with 70 per cent of all women prisoners incarcerated for low-level drug-related offences (PRI, 2015, p. 7). Gender disparity of this kind is evident in Ecuador, for example, where 77 per cent of women in prison were incarcerated for drug offences, compared to 33.5 per cent of the male prisoners (PRI, 2015, p. 7).
Background: Tactile and erogenous sensitivity in reconstructed genitals is one of the goals in sex reassignment surgery. Since November 1993 until April 2003, a total of 105 phalloplasties with the radial forearm free flap and 127 vaginoclitoridoplasties with the inverted penoscrotal skin flap and the dorsal glans pedicled flap have been performed at Ghent University Hospital. The specific surgical tricks used to preserve genital and tactile sensitivity are presented. In phalloplasty, the dorsal hood of the clitoris is incorporated into the neoscrotum; the clitoris is transposed, buried, and fixed directly below the reconstructed phallic shaft; and the medial and lateral antebrachial nerves are coapted to the inguinal nerve and to one of the 2 dorsal nerves of the clitoris. In vaginoplasty, the clitoris is reconstructed from a part of the glans penis inclusive of a part of the corona, the inner side of the prepuce is used to reconstruct the labia minora, and the penile shaft is inverted to line the vaginal cavity.
Results: The average pressure and vibratory thresholds values for the phallus tip were, respectively, 11.1 g/mm and 3 microm. These values have been compared with the ones of the forearm (donor site). The average pressure and vibratory thresholds values for the clitoris were, respectively, 11.1 g/mm and 0.5 microm. These values have been compared with the ones of the normal male glans, taken from the literature. We also asked the examined patients if they experienced orgasm after surgery, during any sexual practice (ie, we considered only patients who attempted to have orgasm): all female-to-male and 85% of the male-to-female patients reported orgasm.
Conclusion: With our techniques, the reconstructed genitalia obtain tactile and erogenous sensitivity. To obtain a good tactile sensitivity in the reconstructed phallus, we believe that the coaptation of the cutaneous nerves of the flap with the ilioinguinalis nerve and with one of the 2 nerves of the clitoris is essential in obtaining this result. To obtain orgasm after phalloplasty, we believe that preservation of the clitoris beneath the reconstructed phallus and some preservation of the clitoris hood are essential. To obtain orgasm after a vaginoplasty, the reconstruction of the clitoris from the neurovascular pedicled glans flap is essential.
The presumption may be overcome when a conviction was not achieved because of the following sorts of factors: first, incompetence, corruption, intimidation, or undue influence; second, court or jury nullification in clear disregard of the evidence or the law; third, the unavailability of significant evidence, either because it was not timely discovered or known by the prosecution, or because it was kept from the trier of fact's consideration because of an erroneous interpretation of the law; fourth, the failure in a prior state prosecution to prove an element of a state offense that is not an element of the contemplated federal offense; and fifth, the exclusion of charges in a prior federal prosecution out of concern for fairness to other defendants, or for significant resource considerations that favored separate federal prosecutions.
Matters involving torture (18 U.S.C. 2340-2340B), war crimes (18 U.S.C. 2441), and genocide (18 U.S.C. 1091-1093), female genital mutilation (18 U.S.C. 116), and recruitment or use of child soldiers (18 U.S.C. 2442) raise issues of national and international concern. Successful prosecution of these matters requires both careful coordination within the Department of Justice and careful coordination between the Department and senior officials in the foreign affairs and military communities. The responsibility for this coordination is assigned to the Criminal Division and, in particular, its Human Rights and Special Prosecutions Section (HRSP). If a matter involving torture, war crimes, genocide, or recruitment or use of child soldiers also involves international terrorism, responsibility for coordination will be assigned to the Counterterrorism Section of the National Security Division as provided in this section and JM 9-2.136.
Initiation. When the USAO opens any torture, war crimes, genocide, female genital mutilation, or child soldiers matter, the USAO shall promptly notify the Human Rights and Special Prosecutions Section (HRSP) of the Criminal Division. The notification should include the names and identifiers, if known, of the subjects of the investigation and a general overview of the investigation. Whenever feasible, notification should be made in advance of any action by the USAO, and otherwise as soon as possible, but the USAO should not delay in taking any necessary investigative action, particularly where such action is undercover. Notification may be made by email or telephone (or by secured means where necessary). If after notification, HRSP determines that there are related matters pending in another district that could be affected by the new matter, HRSP will so inform the USAO and will advise the other district of the new matter. 2ff7e9595c
