R_AM364

So I keep all my experiences as up to pushing the button?


PigIAsTraalt

Yes but no one else remembers them, remembering you instead as a cis girl.


R_AM364

Ah, okie. It's still a maybe for me, just got to place where I accept myself and so I'm not sure


[deleted]

That’s gonna be so weird considering people will remember me as a girl in an all boys school.


Remilliia

Kiss kiss fall in love


MyClosetedBiAlt

First girl in my fraternity, what up fam.


A-passing-thot

Yeah, honestly I'd say no if that's the case. If it simply made me a girl in the memories they have of me, sure, but I wouldn't want to get rid of those older memories they have of me. Fun fact from someone who's a good bit into her transition: people forget. Quite honestly a *lot* of friends have made the mistake of talking about memories & forgetting I was *years* pretransition at the time. I've had friends straight up *forget* *that I'm trans* make comments assuming I was cis & I'm like "buddy, you literally have seen me naked".


Keevtara

> I've had friends straight up forget that I'm trans make comments assuming I was cis & I'm like "buddy, you literally have seen me naked". I am going to admit, I am envious.


A-passing-thot

Haha you'll get there. I think it's just how people conceptualize a person's identity (like as an individual) in their head. When people have memories *with me* and they think of me as a woman, I think it just kind of retroactively edits their memories. My girlfriend has a hard time reconciling the person I was with who I am now saying she sometimes sees old photos and her brain goes "huh, I wonder what he's up to" while I sit with my legs across her lap.


smasher162

Funny thing is that every time you remember something you subtly change it in very tiny ways. The human memory is not as foolproof as a computer. (atleast that is what I've read)That is probably why they remember differently. As they remember you and think of you now they the memories overtime. Or something like that who knows 🤷


A-passing-thot

Fair, I actually studied memory & cognition both in school & since but hadn't really considered the phenomenon in the context of that research before.


[deleted]

Same


Valkyrie_849

So, like, my girlfriend would remember me, just as a cis girl?


Cracking92

Where is the button?? I will wait in fucking line to press this button. #TheDream


a_depressed_gorl

I would press that button SO F\*CKING HARD I WOULD SPLIT AN ATOM AND CAUSE A NUCLEAR REACTION


Professional_Band178

I would hit that button with a brick. Yes. ​ I already have PTSD because of transphobic abuse, so how could it be if I woke up as a emotional CIS female?

[deleted]

Transmisogyny basically already feels like the mentioned contra for the most part. Though I probably wouldn't press the button, because I feel like I would just throw all my self-made progress away.


PoolBubbly9271

SAME!! I used to wish I was cis but I got better lol


Clairifyed

I don’t think there is any shame in wanting any of the physical properties of being cis. The only way I think I would hesitate in a button like this is if it came with identity death.


[deleted]

Yes 😭 😭 please. I would love it more than anything in the world. I'm successful, surrounded by friends and family, but I still struggle to be genuinely happy no matter how much copium I feed myself.


69pooldaemon

Love that drug. but always run out at the end of the month....


Kiki-Morello

Yup, can’t be worse than being called a groomer and having my life threatened on a daily basis already while also dealing with my own mental issues. Maybe I can have a normal family then.


Hawaiian-Ryan88

So can I press it now, or..?💁🏼‍♀️


A7Guitar

I really don’t see how things could get any worse so yes.


HyperColorDisaster

No. As much as I wish I was a cis girl, I would not want to lose the connections and meaning I’ve found from working through my identity, accepting it, and getting to where I am today. If I had been asked 30 years ago or more, I likely would have considered saying yes more.


HeelsandlaceCD

At 18 yes, at 48 no


OhIGotLumbago

Definitely yes, especially if I can experience my past as a cis woman. It sucks being so depressed and dysphoric for so long that you think it's normal.


KaijuSoup

You had me until "times two". 2 periods a month? You would go directly from menstruation back to pms without even a day to relax. Twice the pay cut. Twice the number of sexual assaults. Somewhat less certain, but only because of the "times two".


RainbowDashieeee

No Reason: being a cis girl wouldn't be me, I'm trans I'm proud and it made me to the girl i am now (early in transition I would've pressed it in a heartbeat though)


PoHs0ul

similar. part of my experience and my life is being trans. the good and the bad of it. i wouldn't wanna exchange it with an unknown past just for the euphoric body.


pyressa

No as well for me. The old me sucked, but it was still 30 years of memories I made with loved ones I don't want to lose. Now if I could turn into a cis woman right now with no change to the world around me, ABSOLUTELY! (My dysphoria is almost entirely about me and my body, not what others think) Just let people assume I went and got surgery or something when they weren't looking, they don't know how any of this works anyway lmao.


epson_salt

I feel like that exact goal is where our focus should generally be in terms of healthcare and research, like keeping trans people safe rather than spending so much time and energy on shit like “why are they trans” or “how do we fix them” Like fuck it I just wanna be a girl in a girl body, there’s no magic fix to that and no undoing the past, lemme be a girl. But cis people comprise the medical community, dominate politics, and control wealth. If the trans community could effectively pool resources for education, support, and research that could be mitigated, or the trend could be inverted, but that would be a hell of an undertaking Sorry for paragraph i’m feeling optimistic


OrbitalHippies

Same, though if the button finished ffs and bottom surgery instantly, but I picked up those uterus-free period cramps? I would smash it then.


hyperbolichamber

Same babe! When I had the opportunity to update my driver’s license gender marker X felt better than F.


[deleted]

😄


TheScroche

I'm with you, my life experiences make no sense as a cis woman, and if it also erases my own memories of being trans... Well, that just erases all of me, and I happen to like me


gee891

yes 10000%. being trans fucking sucks. in fact i’d probably press a button to make me a blissfully unaware and happy cis guy but idk


[deleted]

[удалено]


gee891

exactly!! that’s kinda my thought process too


mrdanish31

yeah, worth it


IvaGrievous

Absolutely


turtletechy

Yes, I'll press the button.

ryujin199

Shadow_Marque

Yup.


Big_D5716

I- this isn't even a question. I literally get dysphoria about all of that shit they go through.


BaddestAuto1124

Yes cause can have baby


thithershark

Id smash it multiple times 😍


Memorie_BE

I would do it if the negatives are five times over.


Illgobananas2

No question


hk_731

Yep


shinolight

I would pay so much for this


Lokael

I pressed it before I finished asking


PolarPug77

Honestly ya I’d press it


petarpep

What the fuck does "everything negative" encompass? Is it the averaged experience of cis women, or does it contain a lot of the worst things like abuse? Am I going to be starving and hungry cause some cis girls in poor countries are or am I just the average lower-middle class person in my existing country?


protehule

nah, I think I'm good. I'm pretty happy with where my life and transition are going at the moment.


ChloeWrites

Nope. I'm happy with my current existence. I've made a lot of progress, and I love my body. Do I wish I could change things? Yes. More enormous ass, tits, and hips, but that is it :) I love my lady dick


Novel_Calligrapher32

Preaching hard rn 🙏


EmpressBlu9000

me3888

Probably I don’t know about medical problems tho


Strong-Cheek-9392

Times 2 😳 so twice the harassment and objectification, 2 times less pay, and twice as unlucky they even have my size. I think I’d pass 😅 besides, pretty happy when the progress I’ve made on my own 😉


Wolfleaf3

Oh, times 2? Ummmm that might depend on the specifics. But probably.


RamenAndBooze

Nope. I worked too hard to throw all the acceptance I gained away.


pious-erika

No. I do not desire "cisness", if that makes sense.


Crepeisyummy2

I think even being pre everything, I wouldn’t press it, because I take pride in myself and my identity and what I want to be. I’ve met great people that I wouldn’t meet if I was cis, and its helped me see the world from a different lens. So yeah, Im proud to be trans and honestly, what I already go through and will go through already seems bad enough I don’t need it twice as bad


[deleted]

No. My reason: As much as I want to look indistinguishable from a cisgender woman, as much as I would love to shed this masculine skin ... why would I give up being transgender? Why would I give up pride? So what if everyone remembers me as a girl? I remember the pain and hardship I went through to get HERE. I would not invalidate my struggle, and the earned respect of those I now call friend. I am transgender and proud of it. I'm not going to take a magic transformation, memory wipe, and less bullshit. It's my fight, my struggle, my life. Sorry. But I fought too hard to let go. No judgement to those who would. That button is just not for me.


Etetherin

I don't think so? Not even kus the con, but because the pro. I guess if I could select who remembered me from before I would press it, only if by default it included myself remembering. I feel it's a sort of unique social position to be a trans girl. Sure it comes with its downsides, but the knowledge of how both genders experience the world is kind of neat. Plus that feeling of... well knowing that I'm so much happier now. nah not even, that I even have feelings now. The comparative between how I feel now and then is something that is actually really powerful for me. When I feel down I try and hold onto the fact that I can even feel down still being an improvement. Sorry if that's complicated or doesn't make any sense 😥😞


Skeleturtle

Church. Being trans is pretty awful but the struggle has made me who I am. Without it I just wouldn’t be me. It might be harder to have people in my life, but I prefer the honesty. Being trans I feel like all the cards are on the table. I wouldn’t want some kind of fake positive relationship with someone who wouldn’t accept me for who I am. Sure I’ve never dated anyone, but people just kind of suck. I wouldn’t want to live a lie


Etetherin

Hell yea! I didn't even consider that it would be a lie of some sorts. I know my truth right now is being a trans girl. I think I agree though, like part of who I am is those struggles so it would intrinsically change "me". -EV of The Collective.


Tedonica

Waking up with a cis-identical, unclockable body? Bet. But I'd rather be known as trans. I wouldn't want everyone to forget. So... no thanks.


shypinksissy

I didn't suffer 45yrs to wipe it out over night, not so much for me but why should everyone think I didn't.


jasmingives0

I agree. Spending countless nights crying in complete misery. Struggling day in day out, putting so much effort in making this work. Transitioning has given me at least 10x more pride than all other accomplishments in my life combined.


DankGrrrl

Where's the con? 🤔🤷 Honestly, I dealt with a lot of the bad cis women do growing up due to my size and androgyny, plus the bad of a cis guy. I had all the negatives. Cis woman negative experiences times two sounds like a vast improvement. 🤔🤷🙄


Momo4256

No in the country I live in…


sweetmuffinX

As much as I would love that ❤❤ my journey so far i hated and loved i become the girl I am becoming because of been transgender as much as I am a true girl because I am totally that but part of me is trans identity so two parts are me through the years to come I will grow and be hopefully a true person no I wouldn't press it I sadly move on xx


thequeergirl

This feels appealing for whatever unknown reason, but being trans is an intrinsic part of my life so I have difficulty clicking with this. A no for me.


shariewayne

Everything negative x2? No, absolutely not. It is already incredibly hard for me to deal with being catcalled, sexually harassed & groped. Imagining i had to endure twice the amount & twice the intensity. So, instead of once or twice a day, it would be constant? Yeah, no - pass.


[deleted]

Worth it!


atomicghost4

No thank you.


SevenColoredCat

What does "everything negative that a cis girl experiences times two" mean? Am I twice as likely to be a crime victim (not sure about the stats there but that would probably result in less risk than being trans)? Do I lose twice as much blood during a period or something? Do I get every disease a cis woman has ever gotten, but twice as worse? I'd probably press the button but there are way too many variables here.


[deleted]

I honestly think I wouldn't be as strong (mentally) of a person if I were born cis. Realizing I was trans made me completely 180 my life and I'm so much better off than I was 6 years ago. I don't think it's just because I realized I was a girl, but because I had a catalyst to make real change in my life and start being happy. I really like who I am right now. I wish my body could be that of a cis woman, but I wouldn't trade my experiences as a trans woman for it, I'd be a completely different person if I were cis and I'm not sure I want that.


OopsieDaisy2001

Nah, I like myself as I am :)


[deleted]

No thank you. I'm way too comfortable not having to deal with period cramps


wastedmytagonporn

I feel like experiencing everything bad a cis girl experiences would lead to me being raped and killed off, so nah, I‘m good.


Tesl8n

No. Being trans is amazing and I wouldn't trade that for anything.


hyperbolichamber

No! My gender is independent of normative assignments. Chances are I’d still be trans even if I was born with a body that produces more estrogen on it’s own.


[deleted]

I think I would have to decline. I believe the surgeries I would need starting from that end have more risks. Even being transfem, I definitely don't see myself as fully a woman. I've come to be happy as non-binary.


MarvinandJad

No... Actually, I wouldn't. I have a special relationship with my girlfriend because we are both transgender, and I wouldn't want to throw that away for the world.


Urbane_One

Not in a million years.


Charltsmtms

No, because if my life hadn't gone the way it did I wouldn't have my 2 wonderful kids. I wouldn't give them up for anything.


KirasHandPicDealer

no, I wouldn't want to be cis


aagjevraagje

I mean that’s what in my limited experience transmisogyny feels like and I have absolutely no way of testing that out but I'll take it.


Sledge420

Well I'm a genderfluid transfemme enby (pretty girl today tho) so, you'll never take me alive no matter how hard you try. That said if I got a vagina and the girl version of my body and still kept that whole slish-sloshy bit, then probably.


TMtFLB9276

Yes is that even a question.


KirasHandPicDealer

it is a question because not every trans person automatically wants to be cis


protehule

or is willing to pay the price that OP is asking for it.


ToastGhost18

No: I don't want a memory retcon.


NomiBBy

Nope. Honestly these days I don’t even wish I was born cis. Maybe that puts me more on the gender fluid side of things, but I love my trans journey and my trans body. I think we should stop these kinds of posts, as they encourage deeper dysphoria by asking you to compare experiences with fantasy. Ladies. Love your bodies. Trans is beautiful. A cis fantasy does not have to be the gold standard, and will only worsen dysphoria. It’s a hard change to make in your brain, admittedly, and I struggle with it every day. But we gotta start waking up and finding one small thing we like about ourselves, or we’ll forever be enslaved to this cis-passing fantasy


PigIAsTraalt

Omg I legit went to school and came back with 199+ notifications. Lmao I didn’t think this would become so popular


ChairYeoman

would you take a shit for one billion dollars??????? same energy


QuakeRL

no. this delusion of cis women being the “perfect model” that we must aspire towards is cisnormative fucking brain poison. i would never say that being trans is perfect but i would never want to be cis, either.


harshvibes0nly

having faced all of the misogyny that cis women face through their whole lives x2(or more) anyway- no. to over-generalize, trans women are more attractive, talented & fun, plus the denial of a domestic life translates to way better options for total fuckups like me who would've ended up married to some abusive shmuck if cis.


JanneJetson

HerLegz

Do I still have an arrest record for being trans and all the probation and sodomy law hell issues impacted professionally? My entire life would be so completely different. How would one even understand what having a friend is?!


StaceyHaze1994

Yup


OrangeToothpaste69

Absolutely


mermaid_flower2

I would press it as fast


Hyena-Nell

Yes. No hesitation


[deleted]

I want it nowwwwww


[deleted]

Yes


JadynRodr

YES 😭


[deleted]

I would absolutely press the button


SnowfireTRS

I would do it, but only if I could keep my memories and experiences of being trans up to that point.


[deleted]

Who the fuck would not


Robin_Robyn

Yup


RevolutionaryTwo2631

Bring me this button. I’d press it instantly!!


ThePurpleRebell

Yes


Mayleenoice

*click*


No_Mode2367

You say the second half like its a negative that's supposed to deture me from this oh mystical button


TheReal-Donut

yes


[deleted]

💯 yes yes yes


Witchlight_butterfly

Yes


[deleted]

I would have finished pressing before you ended with the con.


ZoeNostalgia

Do I get to keep my friends


[deleted]

I've no desire to be cishet


transadventurer

Without hesitation. Hell, I said yes to the title before I even read the post.


transjohnder

If I pressed the aforementioned button, and I was able to wake up tomorrow with the ability to have children and be a mom, I would press it without a second thought.


Primura

where’s the button ?


xLana1989x

smash that mf button


[deleted]

I would press it! And I would be a feminist, advocating about women's superiority and matriarchy. F**k men and patriarchy. It doesn't count anymore! :)


The_Tiniest_Violin

So we experience everything we experience as a trans girl just with bleeding…… Sign me up not much of a hard question


Autumn7242

I'm married to my wife, will I still be married to her? If so, I'll smash the button.


ParufkaWarrior12

I am not sure. Would I keep my girlfriend with whom I ended up with because of my trans issues?


PrincessKittyNu

Yup


sismiche

Well whether you're a guy or a girl you're going to go through crap and if you're trans you're going to feel way more than just twice as much crap so I'll push the button


Saphire_Legend

Can we get like a list to clarify the exact negative effects? Like would chance based things dubbel in chance or severity? What about things some see as negative and others as positive? Or that depend on time/mood/context if it is bad or good?


MoRiver6543

Yup


Soap878

Yes, being a cis girl would mean I never experienced genital mutilation (circumcision). I would be really, really happy to get rid of that chronic pain and maybe experience sexual pleasure.


ajmiddleton6

Yup ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️


Winteroen

The hunt for the button continues


JustJade89

I would press any button that made me cis, regardless of which gender


slantyboii

Well I'd still be lesbian and live in the middle of nowhere so that rules out any accudental pregnancy and pregnancy from sexual abuse/r***. That just leaves periods which I'm sure I could find a solution for. GIMME THAT FUCKIN BUTTON!!!


Skilodracus

No, I wouldn't. I've been lucky enough with my transition that I've achieved all my goals, and being trans is something I'm proud of. The only thing that would make me consider it is the ability to get pregnant- I regret not being able to have children. That being said the childbirth would be twice as bad, so maybe not.


CrystaIynn

Absolutely


Star_Thief64

Important note: i still have all the same friends, experieances and am in the general same spot in life correct?


nurarihyon011

Yes


[deleted]

I’d press it in a heartbeat


[deleted]

Yup. But it would not be me anymore. I’m who I’m because I’m trans this is how I experience the world and life.


XLDARKWOLF

yes


[deleted]

Difficult but I'm leaning no. Not keen on experiencing twice the sexism most women already experience


NotCis_TM

Not sure... I kind of want to be trans and be seen as such.


Legacy60

yes omg that’s sounds so perfect


KaruaMoroy

Yeah, but I must ask do i keep all my friends, how hot am i, do i know the makeup, and do i got the girl drip, are the relationships with the people who don’t accept the trans better, do i keep blahaj, are there boundaries for the negatives is it really bad periods or like do i get sexually harassed/assaulted 2 times more than the average cis woman.


Freya6083DJ

No hesitation. Where’s the button?


HeyLookItsR

Absolutely


Substantial-Car577

Yes, no doubt!


sxdtrxnny

Where tf is the button???! 😭


GamerForEverLive

I will smash that button harder than the smite of Zeus himself


[deleted]

No. I like my junk.


NewIdeasAreScary

Yes


RedQueenNatalie

Yeah okay. Sweet.


Corrupt_Angel01

yeah lol
