    Out On The Couch

    Keywords: Gay, Transgender, Penis

    For some individuals, to be a transsexual male (someone who is assigned female at birth and identifies as male) in this day is hard enough. But when you add in identifying as gay (attracted to men and identifying as male), it can make life even more hard. As a transgender gay male, I know this first hand. As a therapist who has worked with many transgender men who also identify as lgbtq+, I know that it is common for gay trans men to experience a flooding of thoughts when being out in the gay male community. Some of these involve anxiety and fear, especially when going to bars and clubs. Most of these clients share the anxiety that not having a penis could put them in a precarious situation. Their thoughts generally fall into the following themes: 

    • Would someone find out they don’t have a penis?
    • Would someone offend them, or even sexually assault them, because they don’t own a penis?
    • Will they be capable to go to the bathroom without worry and bother?
    •  Is someone going to make rude comments, or fetishizing ones, or inform them they don’t belong?
    • How much of their night is going to be spent in

      What is the Difference between Gay and Transgender?

      This may be a very basic publish for some and if so I invite you to skip it, but it is one of the most frequent seek requests that land people on my blog, so I thought I should write a very distinct answer to this ask. (I wrote previously about the difference between some experiences of gay and transgender peoplehere.)

      OK, to initiate with let’s define some terms.

      ‘Gay’, ’Lesbian’ and ‘Bisexual’ refer to sexual orientation, in other words – who you are attracted to.   A man who is attracted to other men could identify as ‘Gay’ or ‘Homosexual’.

      ‘Transgender’ is often used to represent ‘Transsexual’(Transgender refers to a larger group of people than that) has to do with one’s gender identity.  Gender Identity is how one identifies in terms of maleness or femaleness.  For a gender nonconforming or transsexual person one’s gender identity is diverse from what one might expect given ones natal or biological sex (‘Sex’ here refers to one’s biological sex – how one was born.)  Gender is not always the same as one’s sex.  ‘Gender Identity’ is how one feels inside, and Sexual Orientation is who one is attracted to vis-à-vis you
