Is it, >>7? I really wonder.
Say, for instance, that I'm not convincing as a girl. I run the risk of being hurt or humiliated by the whole experience.
Or say that I AM convincing as a girl. What if someone wants to go out with me? I know the odds are really strong against it, but still. I'm not entirely sure it's a risk worth taking just for a change of clothes.
That's the main reason I feel so strongly about this "all or nothing" mind set. I understand why doctors want such a long waiting period. After all, the removal of a bodily organ isn't something to be taken lightly. At the same time, it should be my decision, not theirs.
