History Main / EasySexChange

* ''Webcomic/{{Insecticomics}}'': Transformers apparently change genders as easily as ''deciding'' to be the opposite gender (and without even reformatting their bodies), as seen with both Lazorbeak (who did so after a voting campaign declared that he should become a she) and ''Armada'''s Thrust (who decided to become female so that Lady Jaye would stop harassing him about being a guy flirting with another guy).

* ''Manga/FrankenFran'' has Fran switch the sex of a boyfriend and girlfriend at her high school - literally swapping their torsos and genitalia - because the girlfriend was attacked once and is now afraid of men. Possibly justified by Fran quite frankly being crazy enough to do it, especially since she performs any surgery she thinks is warranted regardless of later psychological issues and {{b|lueAndOrangeMorality}}elieves "alive but in unimaginable, incurable psychological torment" to be preferable to "dead". Oddly enough, it's one of the few "happy" endings (though the couple in question is later revealed to have broken up after cheating on each other).

** After a patch to ''VideoGame/TheSims4'', partially or even fully changing a Sim's sex - to the tune of dramatic body and voice changes and adding/removing the ability to become pregnant and impregnate others - can be done at a mirror or dresser by any teenage-or-older Sim at any time.

* One of the many possible modifications offered by [=GavCorps=] Diversity Engineering division in ''Webcomic/SchlockMercenary''. Somewhat justified given the already established medical technology in the 31st century- quite a few characters have had new & different bodies regrown from just their severed heads. When Elf had her legs regrown, she got longer legs than before and a larger chest during the same procedure. The machine in question was military grade, with plans available on the hypernet and "fabbed" onboard. The doctor [[https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2011-12-28 here]] tells about how her third pass through "the can" shifted her from male to female, giving a brief synopsis of the process; the change happens on the ''genetic'' level as well as higher ones.

* ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse'': [[ZigZaggedTrope Zig-zagged]] with Grace Goodkind. While the [[AppliedPhlebotinum Devisor drug treatment]] she got was less intrusive and more effective than conventional SRS would have been, it still took several weeks, and included several additional rounds of plastic surgery to bring it to her desired form - which was not so much female but intersexed in any case. Furthermore, it came at the end of several years of gender therapy and secret use of hormone suppressants, and the treatment itself was ''incredibly'' dangerous. Grace has stated that the only reason she took such a drastic approach was that she knew how the family would react, and needed to do it as quickly and silently as possible to avoid them stopping her.

This is usually a form of MagicPlasticSurgery. Often followed by OldFriendNewGender. Not to be confused with GenderBender, which involves sex changes that (usually) are even ''easier'', and driven by magic or AppliedPhlebotinum. This trope is more about idealized (occasionally ''highly'' idealized) versions of RealLife SRS.

* In Tailsteak's ''Webcomic/{{Forward}}'', while it's not an overnight job like other examples, it's possible to change physical gender in a month; and the actual surgery takes only an ''hour''. The rest is lead time for growing the replacement parts and healing after the procedure, both of which take two weeks each; still incredibly quick compared to real life.
