Some more detailed info about myself

This blog post is made for the purpose of in case you do for some reason find me interesting, and you actually want to know more about me, but you are the kind of person that likes to avoid mistakes, like myself, and you prefer to scout the person before chatting.


I'm gonna start by answering the pesky obvious common questions that I get on a daily basis.
*this blog is still an incomplete work in progress*


- Are you Egyptian?

Yes, I am, and No, I am not.

Yes, I am, as I was born and raised here, and I do possess an Egyptian citizenship, and all the special love that comes with it.

No, I am not, because I'm not Egyptian in any personally possible way, whether its my genetics which is the first thing that gives me away, as I do not resemble an Egyptian person looks wise, nor does my education, thought process, language preference, personal traits, interests, activities, social integration, and upbringing.

- What do you look like?

Surprisingly, though my roots come from Asia, and another tall order of a mix, I fit the western Caucasian genetic make up of an appearance, I'm an overly pale white thin skinned, skinny, average height person, with light brown curly hair, and blue eyes.

- Where do you live?

One of the most common questions, and one of the ones I'd rather not answer, cuz its always asked to either measure up the person's social class, or to arrange a sexual meet up of which both I'm against, however, I'm from the Cairo, Heliopolis area, and I'll leave it at that.

- So you are a Transsexual?

Yes, I am a male to female transgender individual.

- Did you tell people? or is it a secret?

I did come out to my immediate family (parents, and siblings), as this is something you cannot simply "hide", or "mask" from the people you live with. However, I do not walk around on the streets coming out to each, and every person, as that is retarded, and very dangerous in a country that doesn't accept transgender people.

- How did your immediate family (parents, and siblings) react?

It wasn't pretty, I was disowned, it was full of rejections, talks of disappointment, tears, shouting, threats, and a promises of punishment, and of exile, among other worse things.

- So, now you have big breasts, and a huge butt, and you are always horny for sex, wanna meet up?

No, not really? I mean I'm on a regimen, known as HRT (Hormone replacement therapy), sure it does add up to my body changing into a female physique, I have a generally more feminine butt, and I have started developing breasts, but not the extreme extent of how much it is over-stated on the presented pornography through the Male to Female Transgender Porn-stars, usually most those presented people resort to plastic surgery to look that way, while I'm not against them, but I don't believe I do resemble them, and neither do I need to resemble them to be who I am.
Other than that, on my HRT regimen, I do get a medication that lowers my testosterone to aid in my male to female transformation, which makes me far less "horny" for sex than the regular male, soo, no, sorry, I do not really wanna meet up if that is what you were expecting, and/or seeking.

- Oh! So you're a Ladyboy! not a Shemale! Right?

Yes, this is an actual common question, believe it or not... anyway, umm just for the sake of clarifying things, those terms mentioned above are the same thing as a transgirl/transwoman, which all mean a male to female transgender person, however, as a note to all the people who do not already know, calling a Transgirl a "Ladyboy", "Tranny", or a "Shemale" or other pornographical terms you picked up on here on throughout your time browsing the internet for porn, is a really serious insult, and you should never use those terms when addressing me, or any other male to female transgender people.

- So they were boys, or men, and now they are women? doesn't that make them, and you just another CD, gay male?

Nope, they were always how they felt on the inside, and recognized themselves as females, not how you described them, also I do not believe that gay men, or Cross-dressers go through hormone replacement therapy, changing their personal ID's, passing in public, or decide on getting sexual reassignment surgery.

- Do I refer to a Transgirl as him, or her?

Obviously, a transgirl wants to be recognized as a girl at all times, so you must refer to her, as she, and her, and all of the other female pronouns in any other language, as you would with a normal girl.

- What is sexual reassignment surgery?

Sexual reassignment surgery, SRS, is when a transgender person undergoes a surgical procedure to remodel their genitals to their fitting gender, like when a transgirl gets SRS, she remodels her male genitals into a vagina, that kind of transgirl is known as a post-op.

- Why don't all transgirls get SRS?

Some transgirls want to but cannot afford it, as it is a costly process, those are known as pre-op, while others actually like having their male genitalia as is, and it doesn't bother them, those are known as non-op transgirls.

- So are you planning on getting SRS? or are you a non-op?

No, I'm not planning on getting SRS, and yes, I am a non-op transgirl.

- How come I never see you, or other transgirls in public?

Because, well... we aren't very common, specially in a country that doesn't help transgender people with their transitioning, or even acknowledges them in anyway, also when we do go out, we either dress up as normal girls, or even normal boys, in stealth, and nobody is able to tell, or spot the difference, we can't really go out, and directly say we are transgender, and expect not to get into trouble for saying that.

- So, why the XRMXX/online dating/friendship approach?

In making friends offline it is okay, however with dates, it is pretty difficult, and very dangerous to talk to a regular interested male, and telling him that the girl he is currently talking to, and is interested in is actually a transgirl, that used to be a guy, and has male genitalia, the least of my troubles from that point would be rejection, he could get violent, he could do "Anything" and that is extremely dangerous, and suicidal, and it isn't like I could walk in Egypt in public with a shirt that says I'm a transgirl, and hope to actually be accepted, or even understood, or not face any hateful people fueled by society's grudge against people who are different, and fueled by religious ignorance. So for me currently the online world is a "safer zone"

- You mentioned "religious ignorance", are you religious, or do you believe in God?

No, I am not religious, and no, I do not believe in a God, or a Religion.

- Why are you staying in Egypt?

Because I am trapped here, like everybody else, and believe it or not, even appealing for a refugee status takes lots of time, effort, and lots of money that I do not have, specially when most of the country's citizens are trying to leave.
