We never actually got it on, but she used to molest me with her feet at school & I couldn't even keep up with her.
See, my boyfriend and I are both transsexual. I'm male-to-female and he's female-to-male. Part of transition is hormone treatment. For me, I get estogen and a testosterone blocker while he takes testosterone. And there has been a VERY significant change in libido for both of us.
First, my experience was that, before hormones, I was kinda masturbating all the time. I had to get off at least once a day, usually more. It kinda felt like an addiction. Then I got on hormoes and I specifically remember sitting in front of my computer one day a while later and I realized something: I hadn't masturbated in a week. Hormones had that kind of a change with me.
On the flip side, there's my boyfriend. He's only been on T for about four months now, but there's already been a pretty significant change. He masturbates a lot more and breasts tend to look a lot better to him (I like to have fun with that). Before T, I only know of twice that he actually masturbated but now? Now he's masturbated at least three times just this weekend.
And I know some circles can be reluctant to talk about gender differences and chalk them up to something other than social conditioning, but in this case, the hormones have a very real difference there.
I should have known!! This explains heaps.
