I’m guessing it’s because they halted male puberty before it happened and started female puberty. So, for example, her breasts are natural breasts grown like all other…female breasts.

Aw, what’s the matter Andy? Confused about your sexuality too? Maybe your jealousy over this lil shim’s successes made you regret that you’re still sporting your accursed “male” genitalia?

Though yes, I am a prick. A blog full of sunshine, rainbows, and me going, “Well, good for that little creature” would be far less interesting, I’d think.

Your experience in the world is obviously limited and close minded, and you haven’t got a clue as to the difference between a transvestite and transexual. Are the parents of this child irresponsible for allowing these procedures? I don’t know the answer to that I don’t know the child. It could be possible that they are acting in the best interests of their child. What do you know about it? Who are you to judge their situation? Who are you to judge this child?

I remember reading about this before s/he went through the hormone treatments.
His parents allowed him to undergo the treatment because he truly believed that he should’ve been born a girl. The parents even stated that during his entire life up until that point, he acted more like a girl than a boy (ie playing with toys for girls and the like).
Sadly, I don’t have any sources. Remember, I read this four years ago. If I did have a source, I think that’d be creepy.

1. She’s a person, not an “it”, and not a “that”.
2. Gender identity is not something that is simply decided one day on a whim. It’s something you are born with, and you know down to the core of your being. You know intrinsically that you are male, for instance. If someone started calling you “she”, it would feel like it was all a big mistake, because you -know- you’re a dude. Same principle. It’s inborn to know your gender. Sometimes a person’s body doesn’t exactly line up. The resulting dysphoria is debilitating.
3. Gender Identity Disorder is a known medical issue. Posts like this just show how little people know about it, and how cruel they can be to someone who was born with a birth defect. And yes, that’s what Gender Identity Disorder is: a birth defect.

But go ahead; make all the excuses you want for being a bigot. It’s the internet; nobody can truly call you on it and make it have any real consequences. Go you.

As for myself, I’m glad for Kim, in that she has such supportive and loving parents who understand that when it comes to who a person is on such a fundamental, visceral level as their very gender identity, that person will know best.

Sorry Andy you fail. I’m a lesbian who has all sorts of respect for the transgendered community but 12? Nope. You feel like a girl? Wonderful, then after the age of 18 and after you’ve gone through all the shit you need to go through to make your body ready to be an adult then have some surgery. At 12 you can feel like a girl all you want then go through puberty and boom suddenly your not really sure what you are. Check the statistics on people who regretted the surgery. Check out the people who call themselves intersex. I’m sorry but before puberty you don’t know what’s what.

She looks beautiful!

id deff tap that…

For those interested in the science behind it , see BiGender and the Brain

Ultra-Short Answer – Female brain in male body – one of many Intersex conditions

Short Answer – The Human brain is sexually dimorphic, women *tending* to have one set of characteristics, men *tending* to have another – as measured by autopsies and MRI scans. There’s overlap. In the Lymbic Nucleus, which is involved with ovulation, emotional response etc the differences are acute. Most of what we regard as “gendered behaviour” is a social construct, but abilities in communication and a few other areas are not. Children who are strongly gendered either way pick up on emotional response cues rather than dress or cultural traits to determine their sense of being male or female. For those with cross-gendered neurology due to a hormonal glitch in the womb in conjunction with a genetic pre-disposition, they get transsexuality.

Summary – her mind, her personality, her neuro-anatomy is strongly female, always has been, and would be no matter what her body shape. Having the wrong hard-wired instincts (not just sexual – basic body language, gait etc) for the body produces enormous distress. The only cure is to change her body to match her mind.

There’s plenty of boys in the same straits, it doesn’t just happen to girls.

A very few of those boys – those with 5ARD or 17BHDD – get a natural sex change, without medical intervention. Unfortunately so do some girls, they become transsexual when their bodies masculinise.

Over 99% of all natural sex changes in humans are from female to male, and we know a lot about the syndromes that cause that. The few in the reverse direction are still not well understood.

liek omg i can not blieve u just said that u no how genderist that is?! u can’t call people faggots, specially not on the internets! this girl is very hapy teh way she is now and u r caling her a fagot?! u shuld go 2 hel omg

I abhor your taste in Yuri manga, but:

Depends on sexual preference, marry who you like as long as they’re fine with your situation.

Use a women’s. You’re legally registered as a woman, you have the bits and pieces, and they’re generally cleaner than mens.

Morals are in perspective.

I don’t know, do you like children?

If you’re having lots and lots of sex because you simply wanted the female’s role in bed and spreading disease, yeah. If not, no.

Again, if you just wanted the female’s role in bed, yeah. If it was just to have the physical match the mental, no, not really.

Well…I *had* been enjoying this blog, until this post. I’m FtM trans, the opposite of the girl in this post, and reading the comments made my stomach turn. The Transgender Day of Remembrance wasn’t all that long ago – commemorating all of the transfolk who were murdered because someone decided they were a ‘deceptive little thing’ and curb-stomped them because they are afraid of catching teh gay, or something. Many of them are gang-raped beforehand, or beaten to death by the authorities that are supposed to protect them. Because transgender people don’t conform to the precious gender binary? Fuck that.

I really hope this girl goes on to find an understanding partner, and that she stays safe. Germany is one of the better places to be TG

Gwyidion GO to HELL

Obviously our anscestors would be horified at what as happened to society.
For three hundred years not one person even dreamed of changing sexes or even dating same sexes.
It was not our choice

Now one sick fucking Lunitic desides to rebel against society and we have a palace of guys that are girls and girls that are guys as well as guys who fuck guys up the ass and girls that use toys to please other girls.

That is because you freaks couldn’t accept the complexities of your own sex.
I feel no pity on you. didn’t know how to please the opposite sex so instead of learning how you decide its easier to fuck ass.

You things are mental.

Why couldn’t you just accept that life doesn’t always go your way.

Now us ‘well’ brought up people have to ask our dates if they were men before.

Fuck all you sick people.

AND YES YOU ARE GOING TO HELL.
I would pay to see that.

well I think she has all the right in the worl to feel and be who she wants. All i can say to some of the comments left here by some pea brains is that at least at 16 she has done much more than any of you has ever acheived and has had the guts to do it at such a difficult age where she must have had some real bad times like been bullied at school at that just for who she is. On top of that she is a model and starting a music career which i wish her all the best. and for you “dudes” as a man that i am the answer is YES i would date her without a problem she is a woman and a human bieng!!!!

“Did you know girls bleed from an orifice between their legs every four weeks???? Ewwwwwwwwww! Gross!”

GO FUCK YOUR SELF< YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT…
THANK TO THAT BLEEDING, YOU WERE BORN. YOU FUCKTARD.

Author.

You are a wanker. Stop trying to hide your own homosexual tendencies from behind this wall of “ewwww she’s a boy!”.
She’s hotter than anything you could ever get, and at least she doesn’t “bleed from an orifice between her legs”.

What do you care about her past? It has nothing to do with who she is now. She’d be more deceptive by trying to live life as a male, and fooling every woman who ‘he’ wanted to be with.

I don’t doubt that you have a severe hatred for women and anyone who doesn’t conform to your rigid standards of ‘normality’. You will end up angry and alone, preferably being gangraped every other weekend.

Go fuck yourself.

Chris.

I’m glad you have a girlfriend. Good on you. But what makes you think you have the right to judge other people and their lives? What that German girl has done doesn’t impact you at all, except makes you uncomfortable that you MIGHT one day fuck a ‘man’ unknowingly. Sounds like a fair bit of homophobia to me.

And for something titled ‘hilarity’, you’re not very funny. I can take funny jokes that are un-PC, but there comes a point when you’re not being funny anymore, just showcasing your imbecilic view to the world.

Also, I LOVE my genitals, thanks for asking.
So does MY partner.

I don’t know if you were paying attention to some of the comments to your blog, but a decision like that isn’t some ‘awkward phase’, it’s something they’re born with.

And the fact that you consider this blog and its contents funny doesn’t excuse of such ignorance. It just shows you up for the Dumb Fuck you are when compared to intelligent bloggers.

I do it because at least haters own up to being haters. By distributing ‘humour’ that hates on people who are already dealing with their fair share of life’s difficulties, you are propagating the hate amongst people who would otherwise be reasonable individuals. It’s a sneaky and covert way of disseminating prejudice.

Oh well, I’m leaving your blog now. Clearly you refuse to consider what many have to say about the vitriol spouted here, and you know what they say about fighting on the internet.

Hmmm… I have a problem with “rigorous hormone treatment” at the tender age of 12. Isn’t there any type of moral dilemma these Doctors had to assess prior to administering treatment?

I firmly believe in the ability to choose, but I also feel that in the aggressive hormone treatment, the moral codes of the Doctors were cast aside in light of being able to be a part of something groundbreaking: Such as changing a 12 year old from a man to a woman.

The article says the boy felt so strongly that he was born as the wrong gender, that the Doctors stated they had no choice but to induce treatment right away. I don’t think “rigorous hormone treatment” was the ethical choice on a confused 12 year old, and perhaps psychological treatment would have been better until they are of age to then decide, but then it’s not seen as “progressive” and liable to get you labeled as “intolerant.” Guess that’s how our society works these days. Disagree with the majority of social mindset, and be labeled as intolerant. I guess that’s what happened in WWII Germany.

I truly believe that if a 12 year old approached a Doctor and told him that he strongly feels he is physically meant to become Mr. Olympia (International Body Building Title) by the age of 16 and desired “rigorous hormonal treatment,” society would frown upon it, and the Doctors would most likely be brought in for unethical treatment of a child. Since labels like transgender, transvestite, and “coming out” are considered progressive and popular these days, I suppose society is acceptable of such horrid chemical treatment of an innocent 12 year old boy.

Say what you want about the Author, but most of his posts are meant to be offensive and involve jokes of bestiality, sodomy, child abuse, child molestation, rape, and oral copulation. Knowing this as a reader, what prompts you to take offense to this particular post? You knew what you were getting into when you were reading his other posts, so why raise a riot now? I don’t get it. Sodomy, rape, bestiality: All Funny. One Joke about Trangenders: All of a sudden everyone comes out of the woodwork to call The Author a close-minded dumb fuck. I don’t get people.

Chris, you are hilarious sir, and I read you daily to make my day brighter. Thank you for all you do!!!
