Suzan wrote another essay arguing that surgery is one of the things that makes her female and one of the things that distinguishes transsexual people from transgender people: http://womenborntranssexual.com/2011/06/12/transgender-lesbian/

Suzan's post touched on sexuality, and one of her readers added this:

Two pre-ops together is either Kai-Kai or two gay guys. A pre-op and a post-op is het sex, and two post-ops equals two lesbians.


I respect a lot of Suzan's writing, and a lot of her blog, but I don't understand her emphasis on surgery. It doesn't take surgery to make someone, anyone, a womon. It can take surgery to get excess testosterone out of one's system, and it can take surgery to match one's body to one's body-map, but I thought any trans womon was already a womon from the day she was born.

Now, speaking for myself, I am attracted to womyn, and I'm not attracted to men. I am most attracted to butch womyn, and sometimes andro womyn too. But, so far, I think I could be equally attracted to either a womon's innie-bits or her outie-bits, as long as I'm attracted to her mind and all the rest of her.
