Birthday Thread: NOODLES

No, don't do it, Lysie-sama. It'll ruin your life.

Well yes, the idea of it makes me sick. :P

Though I am okay with people taking testosterone over a long period of time, as long as it isn't just to build muscle or anything else that can be harmful. It's beautiful to watch an FTM transsexual go through transformation.

Generally people with strong gender identity disorder starting as early as their toddler years will turn out to be either homosexual or transsexuals. It is biological in function. Sometimes it doesn't show as much. This is only one example.

Be careful, though. It's believed that 15% of all men and 10% of all women have a brain of the other gender. This does not mean they are unhappy or want to cross the line. Transsexuals are generally miserable with what they are forced to be. Everything feels mentally and often physically out of place. It is no surprise that so many commit suicide.

And then there are some who don't figure it out until they're older. Pity, because, like Noodles said, it's best to start treatment early (i.e. before puberty). As for being sure, the problem isn't so much being sure, but convincing those who can provide treatment.

(btw, the term is 'transition')

Written by a MTF; her transition story is nothing short of breathtaking. I became very obsessed with this site for a while, and it has formed most of my knowledge and understanding of the subject.

I'm a very strong believer in the ability for one to chose what gender they self-identify ... I find it said that Western culture is such a BLACK/WHITE MAN/WOMAN sort of society, because you have places like Thailand and India where a "Third Sex" sort of mentality is culturally very developed and strong. I believe there is even a democratic representative in India who is of the third-gender.

Transsexual.org? *clicks* Oh, that site. Hmm, it's okay. Not super on some details, but gives a nice overview. I don't think it's been updated in ages though.

There isn't really one site that has everything regarding TS. For a somewhat detailed insight in the whole topic you need to read many sites. And even then individual experiences vary, so you have to figure stuff out yourself while you progress.

That would be awesome if it actually was poo.

Actually, that's a pretty good way to get someone off chocolate for a while.
