HornyðŸ§
-
Dicks are normally more visible when aroused, but vaginas sometimes make it look like you’ve pissed yourself. Appearance aside, wet underwear is pretty uncomfortable and can lead to skin irritations. As to why the place that gets wet is the same place that grows coarse hair and slightly moves whenever you walk? Curse of Eve, I guess.
It might just be that the grass is greener, but I’d prefer to tuck an erection into my waistband than deal with soaked underwear. Absolutely no envy about balls though, they seem very uncomfortable all around.
oh no contest about preference; i already said elsewhere that I'd rather have a never ending erection forever rather than have one period.

Coukd that just be, like, feeling comfier with your body and general brain soup?
feeling comfier is certainly making it easier to be horny, but hormones do 90% of the legwork here

That’s one of the reasons I’m worried about transitioning. I’m already horny more frequently and intensely than any dude I’ve ever dated. Adding more testosterone to the mix sounds like a bad idea
perhaps you're just manifesting the T horny already
but for real, if you're sure of being trans and want most of the effects T brings - i'd say do it. i'm not thrilled about my thinning hair, receding hairline, or the acne v2 (this time harder to get rid of), but the bursts of self-hate cause by dysphoria are completely gone, and that makes being so much easier

I'm not so much arguing origin of effect as mechanism of action.

i actually wasn't talking about men vs women; i was talking about having a dick vs not, specifically because of having to deal with a boner during the day... but apparently some trans people who start taking T can get overwhelmed with how much it horns them up so i don't know; maybe it's anecdotally true even.
other than that I've always believed it's (at least mostly) social conditioning though.
edit: i got too excited to clarify that i forgot to check your link before i responded. i gotta say it's not really challenging the idea (that I wasn't trying to suggest originally).
first of all it says
On average, men have higher sex drives, but about a third of women have a higher sex drive than the average male.
so it's already suggesting that it's not a myth.
second of all the way it phrases things seems to target people who don't understand what averages are: it gives as an example on average men are taller but there are women who are taller than men. well duh... that's how averages vs exceptions work. that doesn't mean "neither is taller, it's totally random" it still means men are taller on average.
of course if the rates it gives are true, the exception being a third of women is quite significant.
There are a few clarifications I would like to make:
Having an erection does not require the person to have sex, and is not the same as being horny or desiring sex.
Having a penis does not guarantee you have erections (let alone involuntary erections, which is what you seem to be talking about). People with penises who are testosterone dominant do have involuntary erections, but even so, see my first point for why that's not relevant.
Your claim was about being horny being a bigger problem for people with penises, which is a fair assumption but has more to do with testosterone than the penis (like you've pointed out, trans men can be very horny without a "penis" - though it should be noted here that male and female genitalia are more similar than dissimilar and have the same structures of a phallus and glans, just in different configurations).
so it’s already suggesting that it’s not a myth.
The myth is the belief that men are horny while women are not, the reality is that it varies significantly by person. with significant overlap between the sexes. There is a difference on average, but it's not as large or total as people commonly believe.
And finally, as you have pointed out the social context will skew the data significantly with fewer women being comfortable with sex than men, fewer women having learned to masturbate than men, and fewer women willing to discuss or disclose their sexual feelings or behavior than men. These differences in how sex is treated socially means whatever biological differences there are is muddled, especially when what was measured was self-reporting on frequency of masturbation. It's possible that men and women are far more similar than dissimilar than even the current evidence we have points to.

Oh I know those days all too well lol!
Though ime there is no "control," just "I will face my horny, I will permit it to pass over me and through me, and when it has gone past I will turn my inner eye to see it's path, where the horny has gone there will be nothing, only I will remain." So lucky you lmao!
I must not fap. Fapping is the little death that brings total ownage. And chafing.

as another trans guy i can confirm, T took my libido from "mid, horny sometimes" to "I GET HORNY EVERY DAY AND IF I DON'T FIX IT I LITERALLY CANNOT FOCUS", in the span of like, no time, literally started with the first or injection
I've recently had to start hormone replacement. Apparently my T levels were so low I was getting clinically depressed. So I went from half the minimum testosterone levels to slightly above the maximum. Now, I've always had a weirdly high libido, and I was afraid I'd have to turn into a recluse. In fact, the opposite happened. I had barely any libido left. I'd jerk off just to test if things even worked, and everything was fine, but it was like I was in constant post-nut clarity. I hated it. I didn't feel myself anymore, and having focus and clarity while all this shit is happening in the world... Like, the hormones did help with the depression a little bit, but it was offset by the otherness I am feeling.
Anyway, this rambling is my way to relate, in a way. You went through puberty of sorts, and I'm going through a reverse one. I am having to get to know myself again, unsure as to what is happening to my body, and dealing with the occasional zit.
BTW, Instead of injecting T, the doctor attempted (successfully!) to kickstart my internal production with a drug that stimulates FSH production, which, in XY equipped hardware, boosts testosterone production. AMAB bodies normally deal with excess T by converting it to estrogen. To avoid that, another drug that blocked it was added. I found it curious how the same messengers are used by both sexes, sometimes with the same outcome, sometimes with completely different outcomes.

yeah but now i have two people with reference points to both feminine and masculine hormonal makeup that agree with my assumption so I'm gonna believe them more...
... not because they have unique perspectives but because they reaffirm my previously held beliefs
Thats perfect. I accept
