World Menopause Day 2020
 |
There comes a time in the life of middle aged men which allegedly corresponds to menopause in a woman. This stage of life comes with the loss of sexual potency and a crisis of confidence and sometimes even identity as a male of the species.
This is not to be confused with the so-called transgender type who is a male who thinks he's a female inside or a female who thinks she is actually a male. These are deviations from the realities of genotype and involve phenotype whereby a person changes their appearance with various extrinsic applications such as makeup, dress, and even surgery.
The menopausal male is subjected to a condition called hypogonadism whereby the biofeedback mechanisms involved with male sexual response are insuficient to their existence.
Now then, regardless of your gender — which is a function of your chromosomal makeup and NOT how you feel about yourself you may find yourself subject to menopause and that which accompanies it in your life.
Knowing yourself is your best coping mechanism for the condition and this knowledge surrounds that reality of gender which must be recognized up front. Otherwise you can just 'trans out' and take synthetic hormones for the rest of your self effacing existence and configure your phenotype to represent that fake female or fake male you "feel" is you.
Gender identity is a function of chromosomal makeup not some fantasy made up between your ears.
Good luck with all of that. My personal preference in gender identity revolves around that who I am in reality, not some contrived flight of fancy invoked by that intrusive uncontrollable fantasy world I left behind so long ago.
Some psychology major can go prey on someone else's wallet.
