The aim of this group is to assist those of a transsexual nature to fulfill their physical transition steps by way of various types of surgery. We discuss related surgeons, and share our plans, results and degree of satisfaction with each other. It's a group for those having lived a reasonable time in their chosen gender, with a substantial need and desire to remain in their transitioned status, whether as women, or as men. These are permanent physical changes that typically involve major various surgeries, sizable expense, and possibly long recoveries. Membership is required to participate.
