someone i know "came out" as this last year and is currently kind of inbetween. its confusing and i keep using the wrong him/her/he/she etc. and introductions are insane.

 

definition from wikipedia:

 

Transgender is the state of one's "gender identity" (self-identification as woman, man, or neither) not matching one's "assigned sex" (identification by others as male or female based on physical/genetic sex). "Transgender" does not imply any specific form of sexual orientation;

 

what are everyones thoughts on it.

 

anyone have any experience of knowing someone before and after transition?

 

serious topic no silly photos or comments please

1. its only a gender. boy/girl whats the difference.

2. i don't understand how you would know. this person says "i never felt right as a man" but like what - you didnt like sports? in the bac of my mind i still think they've lost it

i know a chris that became a christina and asked everyone to call him her, started taking estrogen to grow boobs talking about having her penis/balls lopped off because apparently taking estrogen can make your nuts go cancerous. i was all like, wtf, that's nuts, but she said converting penis -> vag cost major $$ and the estrogen was bad enough

 

a couple months later (s)he gave up and now christina is chris again

 

moral of the story: wtf

'He' is wrong, 'she' is wrong, 'it' is offensive. wtf do you call them?

 

well no because they choose a gender. so she might be a he who looks like a she. so you say she

 

and at what point is he actually a she? when he legally changes his gender? when the penis is gone?

thats insane. think about how much uts/effort/insanity it took to tell everyone and deal with that shit. then you start and you realise its not right. gah

if my understanding is correct, it's not because she changed her mind -- it's because it was too much of a pain in the ass. chris would still rather be christina but came to accept the fact that that wasn't going to happen without more effort than he was willing to put in.

seems like the hard stuff was already done. telling family etc. i should reread your orig post

 

edit: so it was mostly the money.

 

didn't know about the cancerous balls thing, will look into and drop into casual conversation

there's a hot trannie prostitute that comes into my work all the time. I didn't know it was a guy until I saw his/her feet. fucking massive. Then I see his/her pic in "The Riverfront Times", which is a free local paper in st louis that is pretty well solid, in the Adult section in the classifieds.

i don't have a problem with it.

 

just ask them what they prefer to be called, duh

 

 

its more the fact that when i'm talking i use the wrong word, not that i don't know what to say
