BREAKING NEWS: Because of the gender issue and other issues people have raised with proboards, I will be moving the forum to another platform, probably phpBB. Just give me a few hours! I’ve locked the proboards forum down in the meantime. Post below with any thoughts and/or advice.
You asked for it – well, a majority of those who took the poll did. You got it! The Man Boobz Forum is open for business. Right here, right now.
I hope the discussions here on the blog will remain long and spirited and sprawly, but now you guys have a place to go to discuss, well, whatever you want to discuss, actually (within the limits of the forum’s comments policy, which you should all read). Raise you own issues, link to Man Booby stuff, link to off-topic stuff, link to your own blog, talk about books, talk about Magyck the Gendering cards, plan get-togethers, you name it. One bit of warning: I’m going to try to keep discussions on the forum a little more civilized than they tend to be here on the blog; this means I will be more stringent about the commenting rules and much quicker to ban offenders, temporarily or permanently.
I encourage everyone who regularly comments here (and who wants to post on the forum) to register there using the same nickname you use here. Also, please post a comment here after I approve you (just to verify that it’s really you behind both accounts). If you’re a regular commenter here and you’re interested in being a moderator of the forum, let me know.
Note on gender: Not everyone here identifies themselves as male or female. Unfortunately, proboards requires you to check either “male” or “female” when registering. The good news, for those who don’t fit the gender binary or who simply don’t want people to know what gender they are, is that you don’t have to display your gender in your profile or posts. (Go to your profile, and click “modify profile” and you’ll find a way to “hide” your gender as well as other ways to customize your profile.)
Post any feedback you have about the forum here or on the forum itself.
And enjoy!
“kirbywarp… transgendered people and reassigned body parts. What a crazy thought. It does sound insane doesn’t it? HAHAHA. Keep on keepin on, you people rock!”
Spoken by a person who has apparently never been to BMEzine. Alas, kids these days. I remember when I first worked up the courage to… “oh god TWO SEPARATE PIECES!!!!!”
Generally speaking people are not born with horns either. And yet, to the interested, technology provides.
Also I would like to point out that I have a superpower — namely, that my views are arranged such that when silly people say “Yeah? Yeah? Well, if you support gay marriage then why don’t you support marriage of more than one person ha ha I totally win” their posture of smugitude is promptly punctured by “Well, about that…” Or similar with the matter of penis installed on forehead, much as this is apt to be a somewhat challenging procedure from a medical point of view, I think it’s probably a worthwhile cause for the person’s body to be consistent with their dickhead identity — both for their sake, and for the edification of everyone else.
It’s not impossible to shock me, I guess, but it seems to be beyond the reach of the average trollgoon and is getting more difficult as I grow older.

I too possess this superpower. “Yeah, actually I do support the marriage of more than one person. It would make my partner ridiculously happy and she’d feel so much more secure if my wife and I could marry her”. Completely fucking boggles them.
“It’s not impossible to shock me, I guess, but it seems to be beyond the reach of the average trollgoon and is getting more difficult as I grow older.”
Well, after a while of seeing trolls on the internet you realize what one-trick ponies they all are. It all revolves around shocking and upsetting people or making people miserable. Those are always the end goals. Once understood, it’s very easy to deny them those goals.
I really do wish surgery was more advanced and easier to recover from ’cause I would make awesome new kinds of genitals like nobody ever saw before! XD
I’ve learned that I can lay an egg and still feel like a man.
@ Johnny Pez:
You can’t just say something like that and not give us pix!!
Pix!!
Plymouth: to heck with just genitals!
I want a TAIL! A long furry tail I can lash when I am pissed!
Of course, thinking of tentacle sex, I guess one would design a tail that was also able to give/receive sexual pleasure……
Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “I’ve got a tiger by the tail….”
MMMMMM, tiger tail!
MMMMMM, tiger tail!
They’re GRRRRREAT!
