Might've misread me, you appear to be agreeing with me while saying "dunno about that"
[QUOTE=NeoDement;38902238]Might've misread me, you appear to be agreeing with me while saying "dunno about that"[/QUOTE] I did, my mistake. I dont get what the creams supposed to do though.
Uhhh, I hate being unable to sleep. I end up thinking too much and going through a huge bout of anxiety and paranoia :S
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;38902425]I dont get what the creams supposed to do though.[/QUOTE] The same thing as a razor essentially. Although with thicker hairs it tends to be somewhat ineffective.
My hair seems to be getting thinner on it's own the more i shave it, specially on my legs. Hooray!

Happy day! Went to my regular hematologist and asked if my auto-immune disorder would affect my chances of getting HRT and transition. He reassuree both me and my mom it wouldn't and it would actually help aid the effects of ITP.
I'm not transgendered myself, but my 13 year old sister wants a sex change and thinks that she would be better off as a male. I just discovered this recently from my mother (Who is 100% supportive because of me) She doesn't know that I know, my mother told me about it. Does anyone reccomend a way I can support her through this change? Or should I just let it be?

When he does, tell him you accept him and talk to him a little about what he would prefer you do. Maybe fire a few questions off yourself such as, "Do you want me to refer you as he? Do you want me to refer you as my brother? Is there a male name you've chosen that you want me to call you by?" etc etc.
Oh yes pronouns. But he doesn't know I know. He specifically said that he didn't want anyone but mother to know. I'm still going to call him "she" because he needs to know that I don't know. I highly doubt that he will go to me because she thinks that I'm a "tough motherfucker" who doesn't care.

My mother told my brother when I told her I was going to do it myself and I was devastated. It's really a big moment that he needs to do himself. When he tells you don't tell him your mom told you. Furthermore, tell your mom not to tell him that she told you either. Though, secretly, I would probably ask your mom to try and convince him to tell you.

Like, I dunno, a playboy magazine, or maybe some kind of male fragrance. your sibling will say, "How did you know"? and you can be smug about it.
[QUOTE=Luafox;38909051]make sure he knows you care and isnt against transgender people then [editline]20th December 2012[/editline] without telling him you know[/QUOTE] This would be a good idea too. Maybe watch something with him that has some kind of transgender message (not on purpose, maybe sneak in if you know something he's watching has some pro-transgender message) and sneak in that you accept it. A good example is the Princess Cookie episode of Adventure Time.

I also came out to my mother that day and said that if he needs anyone to talk to he could talk to me.
Might be a little off topic but I was playing a tabletop game last night (Which was Munchkin) and the owner got mad that I was 'bending the rules' in a game about bending the rules in your favor (Disregarding that he did the same thing) and banned me from future games. Apparently he's a pretty serious business fellow.

I say Munchkin his rule.

[QUOTE=Skelmech;38910689]You know. I'm happy you stopped being so bad about trans stuff before this happened.[/QUOTE] Yeah I was thinking about that. Its just that I wasn't educated about the topic. They don't teach you about LGBT groups in school unless there is a special program (Which there were none that I was aware of)
I'm going to take a bit of a controversial stance. I think you should tell him you know, and let him know you're okay with everything. Coming out is one of the most stressful parts of transition, and it takes a load off a kid's mind to know that there's no risk to the family "taking sides". I work with LGBT teens and it is by and large the greatest source of stress for most. You'll save him a lot of torment if you just tell him it isn't a problem.

[QUOTE=phygon;38914474]Didn't that character end up attempting suicide, to only fail at doing so and then be permanently admitted to a mental institution?[/QUOTE] Yeah. But that's not exactly a negative thing. Anyone who attempts suicide is admitted to a hospital.
[QUOTE=T-Sonar.0;38914779]Anyone who attempts suicide is admitted to a hospital.[/QUOTE] from a situation where the alternative is successful suicide?
[QUOTE=Tea;38914864]from a situation where the alternative is successful suicide?[/QUOTE] They're admitted somewhere to be kept under surveillance. [editline]askkd[/editline] I see the point but I was making a suggestion. I really don't know any other TV show or movie that doesn't make transgender people the butt of a joke/whores/ridiculous looking.
I don't think I should show my 13 year old sibling that when she's going through a hard time
