Q & A with a female to male transsexual
This one-on-one interview with an FTM provides a glance into Corbin's childhood. As a little girl who wanted to be a boy, Corbin didn't know how to put a name to his feelings of masculinity. Even though he demanded to be called by boys names, most people just assumed he was a tomboy and that one day he would grow out of the "phase."
But the "phase" never passed...
Just hours after having a bilateral mastectomy performed by Dr. Peter Raphael, Corbin was exhilarated about seeing his flat chest for the first time.

- Neat site. Just making a compliment and all that stuff. I've been on my 2nd year of testosterone so far, had my chest surgery but am not really all that happy with it right now because my family says it doesnt pass still. I paid $5,750. Recently had my documents changed from court order of name and gender change and social security and birth certificate. So thats where i am right now. Been living full time for 8 years. Anyways, just sayin hi.
- Wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your site as it has been really a blessing to find! I have been on Testosterone shots now for about 15 yrs and still pre-op. Just really didn't know where to get any more information for FTMs. Lost my only FtM buddy, best friend, couple years ago. Thanks for keeping us informed! Respecfully yours,
- Just wanted to let you know how helpful and informative your site has been. A wonderful addition to the internet, extremely useful and has made my research a lot easier. Thanks for sharing your experiences with the wider world; it's people like you that pave the way for simiarly minded others.
- I just wanted say you are truely a beautiful person.
- Dude, ya gotta keep updating the T journal. I just started and your page kicks in terms of knowing what's coming next.
- Hey there, Thanks for the great informative site. The buracracy and legality side of things is where I'm having some problems.
- Hey corbin- we've been doing this at about the same pace coincidentally. My one year on T anniversary is approaching March 1st and i just had chest surgery with Dr. Brownstein mid-January. It's been good for me to be able to track your progress with mine.
- Your site is great dude. There arent many guys in England with a website like this. It's really informative.
- I'm forgiving (in fact compassionate) about FTM. I saw your photos and my first impression was OUCH! Anyway...you look good and I hope you are healing well.
- Hey Corbin, it takes a whole lot of guts to put yourself out there, thanks for doing it. My partner started T about a year ago and will be having the "top surgery" hopefully this year. I know he'll be "complete" and happy. Thanks you for all the info you've provided.
- Hey corbin. I'm also an FTM. I'm 16 and just wanted to drop you a line to tell you good luck with all you've done and in your future surgeries. I hope someday I'll be as lucky as you.
- Thanks so much for this site. I am the partner of an FTM and your site helped me to consider some questions I hadn't thought about before. Good luck to you and thanks for being brave enough to post.
- Wow, what a cool site! I loved your pictures - you've changed so much! I'm not FTM, but I find you guys fascinating and really enjoyed your site so I wanted to wish you all the very best in your transition and every continued luck.
- Last night a friend of mine had his pre-top surgery party. One of our MTF friends brought over the video of the Tyra Banks show you were on. She was the lady who was on with her daughter. Anyways, we all thought you are looking great!
- Before I started T, I looked at a lot of guys transition journals to get a first-hand look at the changes that happen. Now I have a pretty good idea what was in store for me. I found your site educational, and it gave me a lot of hope.
- Corbin you rock! Your pics are wonderful and your voice clips are god sent. I showed them to a bunch of latino trans guys. Thank you for all your effort and energy. A Labour of Love, Indeed.
- Wow, what a great inspiration! I have chest surgery in a couple of months. I'm 60 years old and have wanted this done since these things grew on me.
- Thanks for posting this site. It helped me think about my plans, or lack of plans for the future. I think you have a lot of courage which I lack due to co-workers. I think that's the only fear of mine. Anyway, you rock dude and thanks for being honest with yourself. I'm sure you are helping a lot of furture men out there!
- I am FTM, and I've read a lot of technical stuff about transition, but your website has personalized the whole process in a way that textbooks can't. Thank you so much for doing this.
