Don't forget it was theoretically banned for centuries. The world is changing, whether we like it or not and we gotta adapt to it. This is just the start, i think such cases will start to spread. And when sex change operations will become cheaper due to better technology i believe we will really have to think about what is actually a mean and what is a woman, and what defines them. Actually, i think we can already start talking about that... | ||

Revealing to some guy you used to be male on the third date is something that will (and I mean this literally) get you killed. The truth is mtf transgenderd people basically have to limit their potential partners to either people who are specifically into the community (generally as something of a fetish) or to more normal partners who somehow are fine with it. Its not an easy life, and tg people deserve sympathy, not disgust. | ||

One of my best friends in high school was a lesbian.

I'm not making this up. | ||

If the only reason you date your girlfriend is beceause she has a pussy just ask every woman you meet if shes not a shemale and you wont have problems. If I dated a girl and found out later shes a shemale I wouldnt care, firstly because I really dont care, and secondly because we should respects people choices and differences. A relationship is not about a dick meeting a pussy, its about 2 persons connecting into an intimate level. | ||

A relationship is not about a dick meeting a pussy, its about 2 persons connecting into an intimate level. I don't agree with what the guy you quoted said (about stuff like this being illegal etc.), but you can't just assume that just because you wouldn't have a problem with finding out your date was a shemale, that other people shouldn't either. I fully support the right of intersex/transpeople finding loving relationships, but that's something you say up front, you don't hide that shit, seriously. And no, someone is not a bigot if they don't want to date a transgendered person. | ||

Two girls change into guys so they can marry each other. Why not just stay girls then? And then to try for pregnancy. I just don't see how this is possible and how their children can still be proud of their parents. | ||

Technically, incest is fairly common among animals and was quite prevalent 150+ years ago when there were less services to protect the rights of children. It is, of course, reprehensible in the context I assume you are suggesting, but your choice of words was flawed. As is the association of "natural" with "good". | ||

Do you truly believe that gender is nothing but our physical appearance? If your dick were to fall off (I am making the assumption that you are male) and your breasts grew into a C-cup overnight, would you be a-ok with living as a girl? I really doubt you would, as much of your personality and identity is characterized by your perception of yourself as male. Some people are unfortunate enough to have a disconnect between the gender they appear to be and what they feel they are. I'm sure you can imagine how awful that would make your life. | ||

No. He makes a valid point. There ARE many people out there who shouldn't be allowed to have kids based on their parenting skills and behaviour, but who do so anyway, so why should two nice transgendered people with good parenting skills not be allowed to have any? Besides, a sperm donor must have been involved, so the kids would really have a father as well. However, I think my stance on this situation is that because society isn't ready to accept these two as parents, for the sake of their children being discriminated against, they should have at least looked into adoption first. I guess it's our evolutionary drive to replicate our genes, but I think we are smart enough to not be complete slaves to it. | ||

They are under medical care so if the kid was going to have any medical problemas they would have said no to pregancy or abort it already. Yes the kid will get bully because he has 2 dads that were moms before, but if they raise a mentally strong kid that shouldn't be a problem, they seem to have good economic situation so its good for them, kinda rare for me but hey everyones free to do their will as long it doesn't mess with others. | ||

First with me, yes I was born female. However at 18 I was diagnosed with a Syndrome called klinefelters. I have XXY as my chromosomal level. I made the choice at that time that I was male always felt male and chose to make my outsides match. Yes I had a uterus as well as a prostate. I was given no true path by god to follow. So I went with my heart had all the surgeries from hysterectomy to male chest reconstruction, even phalloplasty. I do not take hormones, I appear as my body functions.I was never defined as a lesbian, never like women. My transition was about me, about completing myself. I am not a freak, I am not a women mutilating my body to have children. I am simply a man, I have no breasts, no reproductive organs, I repaired my body after a birth defect. As for Scott... yes he's transgendered and yes he's even pregnant. But unlike a lot of people. We wanted a child of our own. Made up of one of us. Logan and Gregg are adopted...apparently the state of California see's us as good parents. They know everything about us, our marriage everything. He's not ugly, I have thousands of pictures of this man. The poses were crap, the photographer wanted to show how big he had gotten. Scott really wants to have his female organs removed but there's be a huge hold up because he is so young Further more I love the rude cracks about our children and how messed up they will be. How people feel sorry for them. They came form a very unloving, and hurt full place. They were failing out of School and had run in's with the law over and over again. These guys are now A and B students, never get in trouble and are thriving. The only trouble they have is with ignorant people and their children. Our sons are strong, love their brother and emotional well. If you are really concerned about their emotional well being get off your asses and teach tolerance. We never claimed to be the second. Their are hundreds maybe even thousand of transgendered family's in the world. I am happy to talk to anyone and welcome the chance to help you better understand. | ||

i have no issues with transgenders as i believe in freedom of choice, its their own life and body that they wish to desecrate if it is their choice then so be it. what i cannot stand is that these people claim with their twisted reasoning and logic to justify how their actions and choice are "normal" and should be "accepted" by the general populace. and how they abuse the term "ignorance" and "open-minded" is disgusting, were they not the people that were ignorant about their own sexual orientation? were they not the one's that cannot accept who they truly are? (unless if ur a hermaphrodite). there are lines in nature and humanity that u do not cross, u crossed it now u have accept the consequence of ur own free choice. they became an abomination of nature by choice, and they will rightfully be branded as such. i respect the courage(or stupidity, it goes both ways) of these people to go through with their own choice in life, and it made them a happier person probably... this is not an adventure in some fairy tale after u go through loads of bullshit to achieve ur goals finally things will end in "happily ever after". they do not deserve any sympathy, but pity... | ||

Fuck all y'all. Bunch of haters. Those of you "worried about the kid" should consider why. Maybe because your hateful views are similar to most people's who are willing to be just as, if not more, vocal/active about it? The problem is not with these people, their conditions, or their choices. If no one else in the world existed and it was just that family, they would be relieved of a lot of their hardship. No. It sucks to be them because of people like 90% of the responders in this thread. Bunch of bigots who insist that their reality is the only one and considers any challenge to what they know to be "true" (how fucking pretentious is that?) to be a threat and instead of looking within themselves to truly question and understand *why* they find it disturbing, they prefer to sling mud at that perceived threat. I'm going to let you fucks in on a secret: YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT. You think you do and are so egotistical as to believe that you are "right" when in reality you don't have any first-hand knowledge or experience in most everything that you think you know. Your judgments are based on *nothing*. Weak-ass cowards. | ||

If the child is picked on (at all - highly dependent on if the parents make their transgendered status known to the public), it will most likely be by other children. Children of fathers who have wanked off to transsexual porn. Statistically speaking, transsexual porn is the highest selling porn on the market right now. Funny how transsexuals are good enough to be masturbated to, but not good enough to be treated with decency and respect. | ||

If anything, she's simply a very man looking woman. If he has a male mind and used hormones to make his body male, then why would you call him female? Sure the pregnancy thing is something I dont really understand, but everyone is weird. I'm more familiar with mtf transgender research, but studies have shown that females and mtf tgers have similar brains, which are different from both straight and gay males. IE, when someone says they are a "woman trapped in a man's body" or vice versa, they ain't making shit up. Studies are beginning to show that in the case of mtf-tg that during fetal development the brain isn't imprinted with testosterone (which would masculinize it). In some cases this is caused by an abnormal genetic sequence, where a certain part is longer than on a normal person and is believed to stop the imprinting. Some (quite a lot apparently) dont have this genetic alteration, so its unknown what causes it, probably hormonal fluctuations in the womb. People don't choose to be that way, and its not some sexual kink. Again, in the case of mtf (<1 percent of fetishized crossdressers/transvestites are eligible or apply for any kind of hormones/surgery) [didnt grab that 1% figure from my ass fwiw] Its a huge, embarassing, time consuming process that can really destroy your life. And the financial cost can be unbelievable. People do it because they have no choice. Multiple studies have show that the suicide attempt rate (actual attempt required, not just suicidal thoughts) hovers around 50% for mtf tgs. That means more than half have made a serious attempt to take their own life at some point, and many have done it multiple times. As far as actual suicides, the most conservative figures I've seen have it 10 times higher than the average group. If you really want to say you aren't a bigot and actually want to understand what its like before you judge them as being sick, I recommend you read http://open.salon.com/blog/hear_me_roar/2009/02/21/i_changed_sex_and_died its not exactly an untypical tg experience. more relevant to the main story, even though the pregnancy is weird, you can't really say they shouldnt have kids because the kids might have a bad childhood due to the parents gender/orientation. Doctors and psychologists are testifying at prop 8 trials pretty much right now that gay/straight people have just as good a chance of raising psychologically healthy children. I might personally believe children born in multiracial households will be psychologically unwell (whether I consider myself bigoted or not), but until there is some evidence of that, me saying "its immoral for a white woman and black man to have kids together" isnt exactly the height of reasonable statements. If anyone has any questions about tg, feel free to ask me, as I have first-hand experience. | ||

No, but I've seen from multiple places that transexual porn is generally among the highest selling/renting porn sold at adult stores. Not saying every guy is into it, but its definitely a sizable number. | ||

If they were to continue to take hormones before/during pregnancy, then probably, but one of the side effects of giving male hormones to females is the stopping of menstruation and obviously then no pregnancy is possible in that state. I would be more worried about the ovaries entering some kind of atrophy, but I dont know if they would for sure. On the flip side, a male taking female hormones for even a short length of time will be made permanently sterile. Even if they stop for whatever reason, its too late and they will simply be incapable of producing viable sperm (or much sperm at all for that matter) | ||

There seems to be this idea that people go through this because it is fun and exciting or that they are sexual perverts. Shit's not true.

But for many the choice is either to live or to kill themselves. Unfortunately, fully half or more choose the latter option. The American Medical Association recognizes transsexualism as a legitimate condition. The solution acknowledged is transition, therapy, hormones, and surgery. Regardless, most insurance companies still refuse to cover these treatments. Therapists and doctors require transitioners to live at least one (often *two*) year(s) in the role of the gender they are transitioning to regardless of their "passability" before surgery is authorized. This is a process put in place to ensure that the person transitioning can withstand the hate, discrimination, and prejudices of society. Many suicides, suicide attempts, assaults and murders occur during this time period. If you make it past all that and if you manage to save up enough money (anywhere from $15k-$100k depending on how sloppy of a job you are willing to subject your body to) on your own either through sex work or, funnily enough, the IT industry (because most businesses discriminate), then you are given the letters of reference to go through with it. You are then subjected to several months (years even) of recovery. After all this shit, you are still expected to disclose your history and status to whom it may concern and subject yourself to the same bigotry and hatefulness that you've been experiencing your whole life.

Let's ban all fat people aswell while were at it.. If someone feels offended, I guess it true. Especially since racism is a bigger issue. According to the advocates of transgender we shouldn't ban them, but let them have surgery. | ||

But for many the choice is either to live or to kill themselves. Unfortunately, fully half or more choose the latter option. The American Medical Association recognizes transsexualism as a legitimate condition. The solution acknowledged is transition, therapy, hormones, and surgery. Regardless, most insurance companies still refuse to cover these treatments. Therapists and doctors require transitioners to live at least one (often *two*) year(s) in the role of the gender they are transitioning to regardless of their "passability" before surgery is authorized. This is a process put in place to ensure that the person transitioning can withstand the hate, discrimination, and prejudices of society.

If you make it past all that and if you manage to save up enough money (anywhere from $15k-$100k depending on how sloppy of a job you are willing to subject your body to) on your own either through sex work or, funnily enough, the IT industry (because most businesses discriminate), then you are given the letters of reference to go through with it. You are then subjected to several months (years even) of recovery. After all this shit, you are still expected to disclose your history and status to whom it may concern and subject yourself to the same bigotry and hatefulness that you've been experiencing your whole life. People don't understand this. They'd rather write transsexuals off as freaks and perverts. That they're "sick in the head." That they are "confused." If only they knew how horrifying the experience is. Maybe they'd get a clue as to why "that tranny bitch is crazy!" They may be crazy, but they understand themselves better than most could possibly hope to. They appreciate life more than most are capable of.

(unless if ur a hermaphrodite). there are lines in nature and humanity that u do not cross, u crossed it now u have accept the consequence of ur own free choice. they became an abomination of nature by choice, and they will rightfully be branded as such. So who someone truly is is based on whether they have a penis or a vagina? It has nothing to do with hormone levels that cause them to develop a female/male brain and identify as one in the other's body? What are these so-called "lines u do not cross" and who picks them? You? The Bible? The majority? Fuck that. The question here is where did the sperm come from? We can't just merge 2 eggs and get a baby....and both of them have eggs only unless SOMEWHERE they obtained a set of testes to produce their own sperm, so then why dont u just adopt a baby?? It's defnitely not natural (IMO) for a man to have babies....but then again, nothing is natural about this topic And as for that second part, once again, maybe not happening here, but look up parthenogenesis. Unfortunately humans aren't asexual, for a human egg to develop into an embryo you have to have a sperm | ||

If they were to continue to take hormones before/during pregnancy, then probably, but one of the side effects of giving male hormones to females is the stopping of menstruation and obviously then no pregnancy is possible in that state. I would be more worried about the ovaries entering some kind of atrophy, but I dont know if they would for sure. On the flip side, a male taking female hormones for even a short length of time will be made permanently sterile. Even if they stop for whatever reason, its too late and they will simply be incapable of producing viable sperm (or much sperm at all for that matter) so the baby will only be not screwed up physically and no evidence that the child will be screwed up psychologically | ||

Oppressors are not deserving of my respect. I am not trying to have an intelligent argument (mostly because that is not possible on the interwebz and is a complete fallacy to try) You do realize that you are asking that these people validate their existence to you, right? Do you have *any* idea how degrading, humiliating, and insulting that is? Do you not see through your own words? Moreover, discrimination will probably occur during adulthood if others find out about said child's situation. Do you not see what is wrong with this? How does it not enrage you that someone is destined to be subjected to prejudice, discrimination, and hate because of who and what they are?

Your perspective is one based off of "I don't understand it so I do not validate it." There seems to be this idea that people go through this because it is fun and exciting or that they are sexual perverts. Shit's not true. Transition is one of the most unpleasant and painful things that a person can experience. You risk losing everything (family, friends, job, etc.). It is a choice. But for many the choice is either to live or to kill themselves. Unfortunately, fully half or more choose the latter option. The American Medical Association recognizes transsexualism as a legitimate condition. The solution acknowledged is transition, therapy, hormones, and surgery. Regardless, most insurance companies still refuse to cover these treatments. Therapists and doctors require transitioners to live at least one (often *two*) year(s) in the role of the gender they are transitioning to regardless of their "passability" before surgery is authorized. This is a process put in place to ensure that the person transitioning can withstand the hate, discrimination, and prejudices of society. Many suicides, suicide attempts, assaults and murders occur during this time period. If you make it past all that and if you manage to save up enough money (anywhere from $15k-$100k depending on how sloppy of a job you are willing to subject your body to) on your own either through sex work or, funnily enough, the IT industry (because most businesses discriminate), then you are given the letters of reference to go through with it. You are then subjected to several months (years even) of recovery. After all this shit, you are still expected to disclose your history and status to whom it may concern and subject yourself to the same bigotry and hatefulness that you've been experiencing your whole life. People don't understand this. They'd rather write transsexuals off as freaks and perverts. That they're "sick in the head." That they are "confused." If only they knew how horrifying the experience is. Maybe they'd get a clue as to why "that tranny bitch is crazy!" They may be crazy, but they understand themselves better than most could possibly hope to. They appreciate life more than most are capable of.

Indeed, the nerve of some people. I mean honestly, having a baby!? Not that; transgender surgery and all the expensive bullshit that goes with it. I'm tired of people claiming every lifestyle choice and elective procedure under the sun is now all of society's responsibility. I'm also tired of the outrage-mongering in this thread. Wrapping yourself in the cloak of moral superiority doesn't deserve anyone's attention. I hope in 100 years these moral idiocies and obsessions of our century will be as discredited and scorned as those of the 19th century are today. um hum because transgenderism is a modern phenomenon. It totally hasnt existed for thousands of years in a whole bunch of cultures and societies with no interactions. Its just some new age mysticism bullshit where I decided one morning 'hey wouldnt it be neat to be a girl? I mean I don't really have too, but boy do I want some attention* time to have some elective procedure!' *READ: A whole bunch of people to make fun of me, constantly, purely for how I look. Thats what everyone desires right? Oh and dont even start on job prospects, the possibility of losing everyone you love etc. The truth is, just to start hormones requires a fuckload of work and therapy and meetings with doctors. You need a reference just to see a gender specialist, you need his reference to see an endocrinologist, etc. If they don't think you are transgendered, well guess what, no hormones/surgery for you. And the lack of gender specialists means you can't just find another doctor. There is on specialist in my province, 2 in vancouver and 2 in montreal. In all of Canada, those are the only ones I'm aware of. The reason doctors go for the hormone /surgery thing isnt because they're into fulfilling the fantasies of other people. Its because they've tried everything else; aversion therapy, electroshock therapy, all sorts of horrible stuff and none of it has ever worked. Ever. In the entire medical history there have been only 2 mtfers who managed not to transition, assume male roles, not hate their lives and suicide. thats in 30-40 years of studies. Everyone else has either transitioned or suicided. | ||

While I can be happy for them and their own happieness now, I'm just as sure I wouldn't have been able to as a teenager. I'm not saying that it's pointless trying to educate said teenagers, just that certain reactions are to be expected. Some things just take some time - both for individual and social acceptance. Not so long ago the same thread could have been made for gay couples. Include some photos of kissing/intimacy and you'd have gotten the same "gross" answers (at least for gay men). The whole surgical gender changing is even more rare and thus socially less accepted. Also keep in mind that in many countries even being gay is not yet (fully) accepted. Wasn't the 2004 US election effectively decided by the gay marriage issue? | ||

I mean even if it is psychological, you can still do whatever you want. But still i think it's just a really weird thing to do, to add extra appendiges to your body because you're not comfortable with the way you were born. It doesn't help either that i've never met any such person, and that the only such people i've seen portrayed in movies have been portrayed by people who don't have that problem at all, and just assume that it's a completely positive thing and interpret their characters in as politically correct a way as they can. So i can only guess. | ||

People have the right to do whatever they want but i just find it really hard to accept that somehow literally being a man born in a woman's body can be the result of mishaps during gestation. That it isn't completely psychological, and quite silly. I mean even if it is psychological, you can still do whatever you want. But still i think it's just a really weird thing to do, to add extra appendiges to your body because you're not comfortable with the way you were born. It doesn't help either that i've never met any such person, and that the only such people i've seen portrayed in movies have been portrayed by people who don't have that problem at all, and just assume that it's a completely positive thing and interpret their characters in as politically correct a way as they can. So i can only guess. I like your second paragraph, but its kind of funny that you associated it with a fetish (admitedly something that still happens in some medical/psychological tests). If you were to compare it to something else instead, say to being gay, would you still say 'they have the right to do what they want, but no change in the brain is enough to make someone gay and being gay is a (bad/weird/strange) choice' Its especially ironic because one of the theories of homosexual development is that homosexuality results from a partial imprinting of the fetal mind (not the more severe one believed to influence transgenderism). In otherwords, the neurological difference (how the brain is physically wired) is strong enough to influence their sexuality but not their gender. (This is not to turn it into a tgs have it harder than gays/tgs have less choice than gays argument) If you want to see a video of a real-world tg, here is one: | ||

Then why are we being unfair when we are judging you? I'm trying to to convince myself that everything about this "having baby as a man issue" is ok, but sorry, I can't come to the conclusion that it is. This isn't a MMORPG where you can select your race, ur height, ur job and ur intelligence or what not. Because that's not real. | ||

not every transgendered person fits into just male or female, there's a much larger spectrum, so identifying as a man and wanting to give birth isn't impossible. on the other side, male to female transsexuals can not give birth, so does that lessen their identity as women? many have their sperm frozen prior to beginning transition so one day they can have kids with someone, does that mean they are less of a woman because they kept their male semen? i'm fine if you don't understand or agree with this, but to have people in this thread continuously say it's disgusting, unnatural or an abomination is really frustrating and sad. | ||

The female to male transsexual people that I know usually say that the idea of carrying a baby and being a mother is repulsive to them. my guess is that this couple really wanted to have a baby that was made from their genes, so the FtM is willing to carry the baby in order to do it. He doesn't produce sperm to donate to the child, because we can't surgically add that capability, so he can only give his egg as genetic material. | ||

Ithink there's more to it than that. I also think that not every "man" qualifies for all the virtues of being a "man." Try thinking in less absolutist terms.

The point I'm trying to make here is, do people mean it when people say they want a sex change that they "feel like they are a man trapped inside a woman's body"? YES. It's really not made up. Its a very very strong subconcious drive that cannot be fought. Imagine being totally uncomfortable with your own body. I don't mean in a 'I don't really like my nose' kind of way. I mean you go through contiunous, strong feelings of either things not being real, or you not really being a person (see Deralization Depersonalization). Imagine being an actor on stage your whole life. The role might be a really good role that most people would be fine with. But imagine being that actor all day, every day and not allowed to get off stage or stop acting at any point. Imagine telling yourself desperately you're normal, and then in every dream you ever have you're female. In every sexual fantasy. It really affects you in so many different, strong ways and its unfightable. Here is a list of the symptoms I had from repression: -Constant stress (I was well on the way to developing an ulcer) -Constant insomnia (I was getting 3 hours of sleep max a night for months. Then I would crash and sleep 30-40 hours a day over 2 days and repeat the cycle) -Constant overwhelming panic attacks (really really severe. They are only supposed to last for 15 minutes max typically. Mine were so recurrent they were basically day long) -depression/suicidal thoughts/lack of a goal in life/feeling like nothing matters to you/feeling strongly out of place. ---- On to what they are doing. Yeah I admit its contradictory, and I don't really understand it. But you have to give up a lot to switch gender roles, and maybe that was one thing they wanted to keep. Maybe they just wanted their children to feel more like 'their' children and pregnancy is a way to achieve that. There are plenty of consistent ftm tgs out there who live a perfectly happy, normal male life. If you pass them on the street, even if you are friends with them, you wont realize they used to be biologically female. | ||

Compare the two. Yours says that there's a moral issue. A transsexual's perspective says that there's not. I think they know themselves better than you do. So the question is: Why insist that you're "right" when the best that you can do is speculate? | ||
