So, how was the surgery, what does that mean to live as a transgender boy in the West?

Long time no see. 
Life was spinning on itself nowadays, too much to do, too much to see and learn. 
My book is gonna get published, now. Finally. After all these years. 

I've spend two weeks in Serbia to get they removed big chunks of my chest and I'm now as flat as a boy.

Was it painful? 
Honestly? I'm lucky and stubborn so it was painful but it didn't bothered me so much. 
I was released from the hospital two days after the surgery and compared to people that can stay drugged out their minds to cope Near ten days after this surgery, I'm lucky. 
Mainly stubborn, but lucky too. 
Now I have bandages all over my chest, and the stitches are still tight but honestly ... I cannot feel it. 
I can wear shirts. I I'm the boy I always was, and not completely in the same time. 
Anyway, gender is dumb and no-one can prevent me to be anything I want. I'm stronger than that. 

Living as a trans person these last years was ... 

And that's unfair because I have friends that struggled way more. I just did my coming out and people said "yeah okay". And that was it. 
I'm stubborn, as I say. 
And I have my own tattoo parlor, so I have no one that can decide anything for me, I guess. 
I'm taller than many boys, way stronger. I know how to dance and how to fight and I have nasty retorts so usually things are fine. 
Some people thought, they don't understand. That's okay. I'm not the problem, they are. 
I can explain things to them but that's so much I can do. 
Sometimes you have to live by yourself and for yourself without a care for what people think. If you care too much about that, you'll soon forget who you are. 
It took me ten years to remember who I was. I won't let it slip now. 

My body is now a bit fragile. No one will ever recognize me as a natural boy yes. 
I have strong female traits on my face. 
But That's okay. 
It's hard to be trans, but for me it's okay because I just go through life as I want. 
Family is very accepting, except my mother, but she's a very peculiar person. More than me. 

Well. 
I just wonder, If at one point it's possible to come in Japan (I have concerts to see). Will it be possible to go to the onsen with these scars? 
Meh. Anyway, with the tattoos, probably not. 
I'
So ... Maybe the scars won't be my main problem.  Life 

as a transgender boy is .. 
Well you have to stand for yourself everyday but ... That's alright. 
Sometimes it's tiring. Sometimes people think you're weak because you're born female. That's wrong.
This lonely travel to Serbia allowed me to think. About who I was. What I want. 
I know that now. I'm sure. So a few questions are a cheap price to pay ... 
Some people are more sensitive than I am, and they hide. I don't. I don't see the point. 

The surgery had been a success so far. 
Things are changing. 
I cannot wait for what's next. 

Thanks for everything.
