Inflation fetishism and transgender

Hi, it's been a while since I last posted on here.  I just want to share this with you really.  Incidentally, this is not supposed to be a negative comment on anyone reading this, just my own subjective feelings and thoughts.

As some of you know, I've been gender dysphoric and am now FINALLY transitioning to female.  It means of course that my breasts are slowly "inflating" in a sense but I've never been into that so I'm entirely "meh" about it, which brings up the point I wanted to make.  Since I've been on the hormones, I've found that my inflation fetishism is getting weaker and the tracksuit fetish has completely vanished.  I experimented with fantasising about inflation this morning and found that it took me literally hours to get turned on at all and I fell asleep several times because it just didn't engage my interest.  This is by contrast with the sexual activities with my wife, where I still easily get aroused, so it's not just the absence of testosterone that's doing it.  I also don't think about it much any more, and this is weird because I know inflation fetishism exists in women and that my variety of it - me as the inflatee, also imagining myself as female - is probably more common in women than in men too.  I never had any interest in being the inflator.

Another thing:  I'm sitting here in a dress, bra, panties and tights and it's entirely non-erotic - just normal clothes now.  I have friends who are transvestic fetishists who would be really turned on by wearing what I'm wearing now, and to be honest at some point in the past I would myself have found my current outfit arousing in some ways, but it's just not.  They're just clothes I like in a normal way, like I might've liked a particular T-shirt or something in the past, and that's just SO weird!

Doesn't it always seem to be that the grass is greener on the other side?

I think what's happened is that I now feel that having a good female body is so valuable to me that I have no desire to pump it full of air and make it pop.  Also, sex seems to be about something different now - it's less intense, less driven and not as interesting.  In the past maybe I wanted to burst partly because it would've meant the destruction of my male body, if I was imagining myself to be male in my fantasy.  It now feels that all the new "features" - smooth, soft, skin, slimmer, breasts - and the grace and delicacy that comes with that are things to be treasured and enjoyed.  I can't fantasise about being a male inflatee because I've come to find that imagining myself with a male body is quite disgusting and off-putting, and it's also quite hard imagining myself as a woman inflating because I want this body and don't want it to balloon or explode.

However, it does also occur to me that I now have a vaguely passably female body - I mean, just about - that in theory I could make some really stonking videos and images if I can still cope with the idea of bloating myself up.

 

What do you think?  Would you like that or would my body as it is now (i.e. fairly typical formerly male transgender body) really freak you out and put you off?

 

I don't know why I'm posting this really, I suppose I just thought I owed it to you all to explain why my stuff has dried up in the past few months and also make that offer.

Hi Nineteenthly


Thanks for the update.  That's a really interesting shift in your tastes, and your ideas for why that shift might have occurred seem plausible to me. 


Twenty years ago, I thought I was alone in my inflation tastes, and now there are so many people producing content I can't keep up.  Couldn't keep up when Bambi first started producing content, so I really can't keep up now.  I think your insights into the fetish could make for some really hot situations and dialogue, but also think that the competition is swelling to the point you might not get much of the available pie, and that the yammering intolerants of the internet might target you for bullying for having the temerity to generate hot content while having chromosomes they feel uncomfortable being aroused by.  I watched my housemate and later an online correspondent, someone the abusers couldn't even see, dammit, get pretty badly abused by both men and women for not conforming to strict gender identities.  I would love it if you suddenly revealed you are actually Holly Webster, and all the pinheads were suddenly like "Nooooooo, I was fapping to that."


Regardless of where you're at with the fetish, your stories will always be appreciated at this end.  If you don't feel it anymore, you don't feel it, and it sounds like the benefits you are enjoying outweigh the loss. 


Take care

The majority of people who watch videos are lurkers so the responses you get in the forum will always be less than the actual number of people who want to see your videos.  It might be best to just post a video with your new look and see what happens.

I thought your situation sounded strange at first, but after some thought I believe I've had similar experiences.  I think there are two dynamics at work here.  One is a calming longterm escapist effect of transforming into a body that you're more comfortable living in, and the other is the temporary escapist thrill of inflating into a body you can't live in long term.  I've experienced the calming escapist effect on rare occassions when I've just partially inflated my suits and spent long periods of time with just a slightly exagerated but still realistic hourglass or pear-shaped figure.  While a realistic figure doesn't have the same thrill as a huge inflation, after enough time has passed it does start to feel natural to the point that I don't really want to take it off, whereas with a big inflation I quickly feel the need to deflate even if it's only just to inflate again.

It sounds kind of like inflation was a way to escape your male body and since you're ditching the male body you won't have anything to escape from anymore so the inflation became less interesting.

carnatic

I kind of went off the inflation for a while when I was going through the early stages of puberty. Not the same as your situation of course, but both can be characterised as sexual changes where the body is flooded with unfamiliar hormones, so perhaps there is some connection there.

Do you feel like you miss inflation at the moment. I did, a bit back then, and like you I occasionally tried to rediscover that part of me, but in time (by the time I was about 15) it returned.

In my early teens, with hindsight, I now realise my body was converting testosterone to oestrogen but it didn't change the fetishes. What it did do was give me small breasts and an eerie sense of calm along with migraines. Later on, when I was twenty, the fetishes went away in what I think was a prelude to "normal" sexual desires developing, for about a year, but frustration led to that fading away - no sexual outlet and suspicion of sex - and it came back. But no, I don't miss it. There's an uncanny sense that everything has changed. My wife is now using the pumps on bike tyres and is impressed by their quality in a practical way, and I'm also throwing out all the tracksuits. I can't even begin to describe how radically my mind has changed.  thanks for the insights incidentally - I agree with all of you.

I don't hang around here much- Almost at all. But a person in one of my streams reminded me this site exists so I decided to swing by.

That's an interesting development Nineteenthly, it sounds very similar to what I was worried about when I started my transition. (Is a MtF currently on hormones saving for surgery, and living as a woman) I've heard lots of stories like this one that made me quite unsure about who I was going to become. How much I would change.

Interestingly, my passions have only increased in their effect on me. As has touch in general.

My doctor believes it's an increase in confidence, acceptance of my own body, and good old fashioned positive reaction to hormones. Each month just makes me more and more passionate about my Love, my fetishes, and yes even sex. I've developed entirely new fetishes, but my cores have just gotten stronger.


Everyone's different- so there's nothing I can say in your story. I only know of mine.

First, mega kudos on making what is surely the biggest step in your life.  Many men have wondered what it's like to be a woman, only a few have the balls to find out.  I always admire people who go ahead and make the difficult choice to let their inner selves out.

As for your lack of desire in inflation now, there are probably several different factors at work.

Hormones are a very powerful drug.  They are not only changing your body, but changing your mind.  There have been trangendered individuals who have had their sexual orientation change once on hormones (i.e. attracted only to women before hormones, attracted only to men while on hormones and vice versa)  So it's probably doing a number on what turns you on (after all, your brain is the most erotic part of the body.)

Then there's the fact that you used to inflate "en femme."  And that was probably a huge part of the turn on for you.  And now that that part has become reality, you just might not need that other part.

And finally there's the escapism possibility.  Inflation is largely fantasy, especially to the extent I seem to remember you doing it.  By participating in it, you are escaping reality to go off to a fantasy world where you are happy.  But now that you've taken thsi huge step in your life, you are happier now and just no longer wish to escape your new reality.

Regardless of the reason, I hope all goes well with your transition to your new life.
