Kira (Kirill Sadovy)
MGUKI student, 20 years old
Cost of vaginoplasty: about 200 thousand rubles.
I noticed feminine traits in myself and began to emphasize the seventh grade. Four years ago I moved to Moscow to study, then I went to a modeling agency, where I tried acting as a woman for the first time, then I put on heels and realized that I liked it. I started wearing make-up, growing my hair and wearing women's clothes. But I presented myself as an androgyne and spoke of myself in the masculine gender. A year ago, a psychotherapist advised me to talk about myself in the feminine gender so that it would be easier for me to socialize.
I thought that my femininity and sophistication would remain with me forever, but when I turned 19, I looked at myself in the mirror and realized that I was turning into a man. I even went for hair removal, which killed a huge amount of time and money. It was useless: I was turning into a man, testosterone was boiling in me. It was unpleasant for me to look at myself in the mirror; I understood that I did not want to be like that. I already felt like a girl, but in the reflection I saw a man.
I began to read forums and websites, figure out what medications to take to make the feminization process safer, and began to take hormones on my own without the insistence of endocrinologists. I somehow felt the right dose myself (ten months later I went to the endocrinologist, and she told me that I calculated the dose absolutely normally, she didn’t even change anything for me). Within a month, I felt that my stubble had practically stopped growing, my breasts began to hurt, I felt that they would soon begin to grow. I saw that I had become more tender in general, and decided to move further along this path - to have sex reassignment surgery.
Conversation with family
I made my final decision in February of this year. I went to visit my family in the Vologda region; it was important for me to get their approval and support. I, of course, did not have material resources, but I was sure that if I wanted, something would help me.
When I told mom and dad, dad got down on his knees and begged for God’s sake not to have the operation, saying that it was a demon inside me. Mom was in solidarity with him, she wanted to take me to church so that I could confess, she wanted to take me to mental asylum, cut off hair.
My sister called me on the phone and said: “I don’t need such a relative, I’m giving up on you.” Then my brother came and beat me. At that time, dad was lying on the sofa, mom tried to help, but it was no use - in the end I got a concussion. I ended up in the hospital for a week.
At that moment, I was incredibly sad, but I felt that my mother was sorry for me. She went to the hospital and asked not to be offended by her brother. But I wasn’t offended, I understood that we live in a small town, society is pressing. When I was discharged from the hospital, I felt that my mother had accepted my decision, and my father, over time, too. Financial issue I decided on my own, I was offered to take part in the filming documentary film about transgender people. The company that rents it paid the expenses.
Operation
Gender reassignment surgery is not performed without indications. To begin with, it was necessary to consult a psychotherapist so that he would give me a conclusion about the presence of the F64.0 syndrome - gender identity disorder, transsexualism. I was shown to have an operation, but first I had to go through a urologist, a surgeon, a tripartite psychiatric examination, and pass a certain number of tests.
Gender reassignment surgery takes place in two stages. The first stage is orchiectomy (removal of the testicles). The operation lasted an hour and a half and the next day I was allowed to go home. I was recovering from anesthesia for four hours, during the first day there were tolerable pulling pains in the groin area, but I didn’t even need an anesthetic. I immediately felt that something foreign had already been removed from me. I will have to undergo hormone therapy for the rest of my life, because my body will no longer produce testosterone. But in this regard, I am an obligatory person - this is my health, my appearance.
I still have to undergo the second stage - vaginoplasty - in January. Recovery will be longer: you cannot move for a week. But you can’t sit in your usual position for a month, you can only sit sideways. Previously, vaginoplasty was done differently, roughly speaking, everything was cut off and drilled. Now doctors have reached a new level. I will have an absolutely female vagina, but there will be no uterus. Three months after the operation, I will be able to have full sex, and I will experience orgasm, and there will even be natural lubrication.
When I first thought that I wanted to have an operation, I called all the sperm banks, but I couldn’t afford to save the sperm - they have to leave 15 thousand for storage every month, and I had to give up this idea. Even if I can't have children naturally, I don't think it's big sacrifice, because there are a lot of abandoned children on Earth.
Although I recently found out that such an operation as a uterine transplant is already being performed. Even one of my friends is planning to do it. True, transsexuals have not yet been given birth in practice, but I am sure that this process will begin soon. If, of course, this is not all a hoax and such an operation can really be productive, then I will be torn, but I will do it.
About study
I informed the teachers at the institute personally, and they all reacted differently. Despite the fact that I study at the Department of Psychology and Pedagogy, where teachers should be savvy in such matters and treat people with gender identity disorders with loyalty, many are rude to me. One teacher shows open aggression towards me: she constantly makes comments about appearance. For example, she doesn’t like my manicure. The teachers call me Kirill on principle. They said: until I change my documents, I will be Kirill for them. I understand teachers and I’m not offended - they are older people, it’s hard for them. The only teacher who treats me well is the one who decided to be my thesis supervisor.
Since the first year, my classmates have treated me normally; by the time the decision to undergo surgery was made, much less attention was paid to me. They call me Kira and address me as a girl.
After receiving my diploma, I will not work in my profession. I never wanted to be a psychologist; it’s not profitable. I want to work in beauty, make people more attractive, go into the field of makeup, image making, but this requires additional courses. But even before graduating from university, I need to find at least some kind of job, because soon I will have to move out of the hostel and rent an apartment.
About relationships
I am often invited on dates on various websites, in clubs, and constantly approached on the streets. It often happens like this: I was invited to a movie or we went to a cafe, we walk, talk the whole evening, and men all this time do not realize that they are not with a girl. Even when it comes to kissing, they have no suspicions. But if everything goes towards sex, I say that I am a transsexual. I’ve come across more conservative men, naturally, they get scared and start asking questions: “How can this be?”, “Where did you get your breasts, your face, and those lips?” There was no aggressive reaction, no one started getting hysterical about kissing a man. Because where am I, man? I don’t even look like a man, since childhood I have felt and behaved like a girl.
I had a relationship with one man for almost two years. We met on the train. As it turned out later, he saw me on a social network and read in my notes when I was traveling from Vologda to Moscow. That day at five in the morning he arrived at the station to pick me up. And when I went to take the train to Khimki, he followed me, entered the carriage, sat next to me, started complimenting me and invited me to go with him in the car. I denied it for a long time, then I believed that his intentions were good, and I was not mistaken. I fell in love with him, he treated me with such nobility and tolerated my betrayals. But he didn’t like children, didn’t want a family, so I immediately told him that I would be with him until I met a man who was ready for a serious relationship with me. For me this question is very important. I dream of getting married and finding a man with whom I will be happy; I am already mentally ready for children, but not financially ready.
Late in the evening of December 20, 2001, in one of the residential areas of Moscow, the corpse of a woman with numerous stab wounds was discovered in an apartment. It was not difficult to establish the identity of the deceased: the 38-year-old vice world champion in figure skating, winner of the first Olympic Games award in the history of Soviet and Russian women's skating, was killed in her apartment. Forensic experts noted that the killer mocked his victim: after inflicting 17 blows, he cut off the woman
hair, scattered it all over the house and only then left, closing the door behind him. Concerned neighbors called the police only two days later.
According to one of the first versions, Kira was killed by a robber who wanted to take possession of her numerous awards. However, a simple investigation revealed that Ivanova had not been at home for a long time: only a badge of a participant in the Olympic Games in Lake Placid was found in the apartment - and the champion sold all more or less valuable awards or exchanged them for alcohol. As it turned out during the investigation, in last years she unsuccessfully fought the green serpent. So the main version of the murder is a conflict with someone from casual acquaintances that arose on domestic grounds. In the end, the killer was never found.
Nightmares and insomnia
The 1988 Olympics was the last big start for Kira Ivanova. She was in first place after the first day of competition, but she skated unsuccessfully on the next two days, fell out of the top three, and decided to end up with amateur skating. Soon she broke up with her coach Vladimir Kovalev with whom she was in love. A new, difficult period began in the athlete’s life, when the champion, who no longer needed to strive for new victories, tried to find herself again.
The mother, who abused alcohol, did not raise her daughter, the father left the family, so Kira was raised by her grandmother.
From childhood, she fought for a place in the sun: her mother, who abused alcohol, did not raise her daughter, her father left the family, so Kira was raised by her grandmother. They lived modestly, and the girl dreamed of quickly achieving success, earning money to provide herself and her grandmother with a comfortable life. Thanks to hard work and perseverance, she succeeded. But when sports career was completed, but there was no need to think about wealth, it was difficult for Ivanova: she did not know what to do next.
After leaving sports, she tried acting in films, began coaching, got a job at the Ice Miniatures Theater, where she met many teammates, started an affair with a Bolshoi Theater dancer and even married him. However, Kira’s soul was still restless: close people later said that even in that apparently prosperous period of her life, she took powerful sedatives. Even then, Ivanova was tormented by nightmares and insomnia.
Left all alone
In 1989, Kira lost her grandmother. And the first marriage didn’t work out. However, the man’s shoulder was substituted for the fragile champion Konstantin Tarelin- Deputy Director of the Moscow Ice Ballet. Ivanova married a second time and continued skating for another year. At the end of 1991, Kira received a unique offer - to go to Turkey as a figure skating coach. Ivanova later called the seemingly spectacular chance the main mistake in her life. Two weeks after arriving in Turkey, she realized that she was pregnant, but the contract did not provide for the birth of a child, and the girl decided to have an abortion. Three months later, the Turks still terminated the contract with Ivanova, but the child could not be returned - and Kira was very worried about this.
Two weeks after arriving in Turkey, she realized that she was pregnant, but the contract did not provide for the birth of a child, and the girl decided to have an abortion.
She bought herself a Caucasian Shepherd dog, which she literally nursed like a child. I decided to take a break from sports. But in the end she survived only a few months without ice and in 1993 she began giving private lessons at Luzhniki. Even then, Kira began to abuse alcohol - her husband tried to influence her, but could not do anything. Moreover, grief happened in the family: Kira’s younger sister committed suicide because of unhappy love. Of the close people of the champion, only her husband remained. And even after a year, tired of constant problems, he left for another woman. Ivanova was left completely alone, alone with her difficulties, sorrows and alcohol.
The green serpent has won
In 1996, through no fault of her own, she got into a car accident, spent a long time recovering from it, but still came to her senses and continued working as a coach in her native Dynamo. Life was gradually getting better: there was a stable salary, there were capable students, there was a goal in life: Kira went to work with great pleasure, tinkered with young students, tried to help them in everything. However, the green serpent still won in a protracted battle. Parents began to notice that their children’s coach was increasingly coming to work drunk. Kira stopped going out on the ice to show her students some elements. Things were getting worse.
Kira was fired from Dynamo, and she was left completely without a livelihood. With grief, the champion went into a binge, from which she did not leave for almost a month and a half.
In 2000-2001, Ivanova was treated for addiction six times - nothing helped. In September 2001, she was fired from Dynamo, and she was left completely without a livelihood. Out of grief, the champion went on a drinking binge, from which she did not leave for almost a month and a half - she was taken out only in November, in a drug treatment clinic. Kira was still making plans to return to normal life, negotiating with old acquaintances about getting a job, but in her apartment there were more and more suspicious individuals, those with whom Kira had once crossed paths during treatment, or simply homeless people. One of them probably ended her life at the very end of 2001.
But only 17 years have passed since Kira became the first in the history of the country to win an award in women's skating - bronze of the Games in Sarajevo. The Soviet figure skater was admired for her polished jumps, she received a standing ovation, and children, for example, actress Keira Knightley, were named after her. Many figure skating fans still keep the fond memory of this amazing athlete in their hearts. And it's hard to believe that Kira Ivanova hasn't been with us for 15 years. She coped with worldwide fame, but could not cope with the painful loneliness that followed.
Million dollar girl! Who is she? Why do men talk about her like that? And how much does gloss really cost?
There are a lot of rumors around the secret of the success of sought-after women! What kind of person do you need to be to be noticed by men, respected by colleagues, treated well by competitors...
The famous model, socialite and regular heroine of television broadcasts Kira Arsenina, at whose feet men, fame, and money fell, told her tricks and methods of how to always stay on top!
1) Most main mistake, which is allowed modern women, this is that they are reshaping themselves beyond recognition! In my opinion, natural beauty is always in fashion! This does not mean that you don’t need to go to a cosmetologist! No, you need it - clean and healthy skin reveals your well-groomed appearance! Even a face without makeup should look perfect! And this can only be achieved with perfect skin! Girls often forget about healthy hair! Simply healthy hair, not weighed down by styling products, looks better and more expensive than any hairstyle! And, of course, a slim figure! Believe me, everyone associates a good figure with a more significant concept - health, and health nowadays is expensive. This is both fitness and proper nutrition, and relaxation, and much more! You automatically appear in the eyes of others as a dear, beautiful woman who takes care of herself, takes care of her health, and therefore will transfer this to her family. And this greatly elevates you!
2) " Best friends girls, these are diamonds,” proclaimed the inimitable American diva Marilyn Monroe! In the modern world, you can make friends with less expensive jewelry. For example, family jewelry, as I call them, or products of the Soviet jewelry industry.
3) Your wardrobe will also have to be “combed” if you are applying for the TOP! Nowadays, elegance and simplicity are the choice of even the richest and most famous! For example, a pencil skirt, just below the knee length and a white or blue shirt will give you gloss and intelligence. A turtleneck, white T-shirt, straight jeans - sexy and modest at the same time!
4) Important fact! Neatness and cleanliness are an integral part of the image of a modern lady! You should always smell fresh!
5) Do you want men to be under your heels? Then choose these heels with passion! Shoes bright accent, pumps have been very popular for several seasons now! And attract the attention of others! Every girl should have these.
6) Looking like 1,000,000 does not mean wearing a million! All the best at once - many people do this! This is mistake! Believe me, your name does not depend on the names of brands! Be it Chanel or Dolce, they will not add to your beauty if you have not followed the above points... And vice versa, any other designers will not yield to them if you are otherwise excellent!
7) There is nothing worse than a pretty girl who thinks only about her appearance and absolutely does not know how to behave properly. Sometimes you feel sorry for those women who spend a lot of time and money on care in order to achieve the perfect hairstyle, manicure and makeup, but are completely lost due to the total inability to behave and carry themselves with dignity.
8) Communication with men is almost the most important skill that any girl should master perfectly. We all know that sometimes it is better to remain silent and appear smarter than to talk nonsense without closing your mouth. I often see a picture where a woman in a couple fills the entire space! This is also a mistake! A worthy companion only occasionally inserts phrases and agrees with what has been said above, nodding her head in agreement with her chosen one. This shows that her man is leading the conversation. And in relationships! At least it should be like this in society!
9) Emotional state! Everyone likes a good mood and a smile! Cheerful people with good energy are very attracted! Have you noticed this? We kind of feed off of such people. Take this into account - always smile, enjoy every day, the little things... Bring positivity and joy to the world... But without fanaticism! You shouldn't laugh like a horse! Yes, you can smile a little without opening your mouth wide. It's inviting, not annoying!
10) Sense of humor! This is the most valuable thing! React to jokes, be able to defuse the situation, exchange an anecdote somewhere, in society... Such women are not forgotten.
That's all the secrets for today! Be queens, and never lower the bar!
