    I got the last laugh. I was cut as a newborn, but I still didn’t end up with the parts my parents wanted. They took a little snip. I went for the full origami of gender reassignment surgery. 🤣

      Take it one step further, and invent an entirely new set of genitals just to piss them off!

        I went for the pretty standard fem package. But there are folks doing some pretty wild things out there now.

          Really? I’m a cis dude and I haven’t heard of any of that from my trans friends, I’m genuinely curious. I couldn’t imagine what other designs people would go for. Do you like draw it up in CAD before hand or something?

            I’m a binary trans woman myself. I just wanted the full standard package.

            But there are varieties, mainly spearheaded by the nonbinary community. There’s zero depth vaginoplasty, where they make a labia but no vaginal canal. (Easier maintenance, ideal for lesbians with no interest in penetration.) For asexual folks or those with no interest in sex, there’s nullification surgery, aka the “Ken doll” method. And for the most exotic, the term you’re looking for is “Salmacian.”

            Here’s a subreddit. Obviously NSFW:

              That is so incredibly fascinating. What a world we live in. I keep saying how excellent of a future we have, if only some bone-heads could stop giving so much of a shit what people do in their private lives.

            they could have a “design your own genitals” kiosk like the “design your own building” ones at lumber yards.
