If you have already, say yes.
Would you get chest surgery?

Why would you not? I find it would make my life more comfortable.
03/12/2012
I'm fully intending to in the future.
03/13/2012
Like for a heart attack? Or boob implants?
03/13/2012
Yeah, I plan to.
03/13/2012
Had it 2 months ago now, and I haven't regretted it once. For the first time in quite a while, I'm comfortable with looking at myself in the mirror or in the shower without a shirt! It's great.
03/13/2012
No I like the way I am.
03/13/2012
Most definetly.
03/13/2012
Probably not. I have heard that it lowers your immune system

No, I don't want to get chest surgery. Though I do bind, I like my chest, and I want to keep it for both political and sexual reasons.

Because not everyone has body dysphoria. I'm genderqueer and I'm okay with my body. I'm just not comfortable with my body being understood through the lens of traditional femininity. When I butch up, I'm totally happy with my boobs.

I can't wait to wear just a shirt places.

That is true. I think everyone has their own feelings about their bodies. It depends on person to person.

Had it in January, and it's changed my life. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
03/13/2012
Maybe.
03/14/2012
Yes, but I wouldn't remove my breasts entirely. Being polygender, I would like to be able to "flip" through my gender presentation -- I'd like breasts enough to be "feminine" but small enough that I can bind down and be completely flat when I feel "masculine" or neither. It isn't just about body dysphoria for me, either -- mine are huge, and they cause a lot of pain in my back and neck.
03/14/2012
If I could afford it, it would already be done.
03/14/2012
Kind of vague poll, but I'm guessing you mean implants. Me? No. Male and bisexual. GF has huge I mean freaky huge fraking knockers. So no for her as well.
03/25/2012
Yes. I've never wanted them even before puberty I dreaded it because I would get breasts. I don't like them visually, physically, on other people. Anything. They are very weird to me so yes, I plan on having chest surgery in the future. It's not even a dysphoria issue, they are just... pointless.

I used to have double D's and I went down to a B cup because of how awkward I felt. I've always been more on the androgynous side gender wise and having that large of a chest was incredibly uncomfortable.

Every once in awhile I wonder about whether my decision was the right one for me, but the wondering only lasts a brief moment before I realize how obnoxious it was to be stared at and treated like a sex object just because of my chest.
Now I can go without a bra comfortably, my clothes fit much better and I can bind easily if I choose to. So wonderful

Seeing as this is in the Transgendered Issues forums, I'm assuming they mean beast reduction/masculinizat ion (for FtMs) or beast implants (for MtFs), transsexual top surgery.

Yes.
03/26/2012
YES, unfortunately since bottom surgery for FtMs isn't really up to par in my opinion, top surgery and a hysterectomy are probably all I'll get. I'm scared to death of surgery, but I know it will change my life. I'm so excited for the day I can!

I feel the same way. I didn't really want to bind for as long as I have been, I really don't want to keep it up.

It's really bizarre to me that people post in the trans boards and are confused by the poll, why even post here if it's not relevant to you?
03/27/2012
Yes.
I'm going to try to start saving this summer.
