Julie & Lotus> So does it mean that for people with similar histories, the progression is very often: curiosity -> covert feminisation / herbs -> HRT -> surgeries ?
It appears that for many trans-people gender dysphoria begins to progress later in life until it is unbearable and they ... or rather we ... feel that something has to be done about it. Gradual progression of feminization strategies would then reflect gradual worsening of the dysphoria. And then there is another group of people who are content with just certain level of feminization, e.g. breasts. But at the beginning it is hard to say which group individual belongs to.
So back to original question of this thread: I think that the reason to indulge oneself in NBE is always most probably either gender dysphoria or desire to achieve gender euforia.
