The kid's twelve. I don't think you can expect him to be a paragon of new age feminist thought at that age.[/QUOTE]
I can expect that a 12-year-old wouldn't act like a 6-year-old. 12 is a little old to be dreaming about becoming a princess when you grow up, Y chromosome or not.
[QUOTE=TacoNinja;17376385]WHY IN THE FREAKIN WORLD WOULD YOU LET A 12 YEAR OLD CHOOSE THAT?! Seriously, why? He's probably just curious, and one day said "mommy, what's it like to be a girl?" and MOMMY said "We'll cut off your penis and you can find out!" and he said " but..." and MOMMY SAID "ALL I EVER WANTED WAS A FUCKING LITTLE GIRL! NOW I'M GETTING ONE, AND YOU'RE GONNA BE MY LITTLE DAUGHTER FOR EVER, YOU LITTLE TWERP!" -The end

[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;17376200]well then it's a good thing you're an internet nerd whose opinions no one cares about, isn't it?

And what does that make you?
I happen to find it dishonest.

Umm, you're thinking 12 is more mature than it actually is.
Personally though, if I was her, I would have waited, because stem cells will factor in to Gender Reassignment Surgery eventually and improve them.

What the fuck is wrong with you guys? You have your own life, let others live their own. You sound like the dumbass skinheads that plauge my part of the country.
Hope it gets the shit beat out of it.
[QUOTE=SigmaLambda;17376010]I'm pretty sure that the parents are also part of the decision.[/QUOTE]
So?
I hope there are fatal complications.
what the fuck the boy has no face in that picture :downs:

Irony. Here you're asking for your right to be an asshole, further proving the point. Tell me, have you ever been a minority? Do you know what it's like?

Are you defending the 12 year old's right to get a sex change? Because he doesn't have one, at 12. I'm fucking glad that when I was 12 I wasn't in the power to make life altering decisions because now that I'm 15 I have almost completely changed how I think.
[QUOTE=EcksDee;17369599]Gender identity (otherwise known as core gender identity) is the gender(s), or lack thereof, a person self-identifies as. It is not necessarily based on biological fact, either real or perceived, nor is it always based on sexual orientation. The gender identities one may choose from include: male, female, both, somewhere in between ("third gender"), or neither.[/QUOTE]
I'd like to say it's a perceived thing. People are attention whores who should get use to their own skin.

I'm not trying to ban sex change, I'll tolerate it. However, I'm entitled to my opinion. If you can voice yours and I can't, that would make me a minority now wouldn't it?
Why would the school announce this? I think making a big deal of it will be even more detrimental to the child's life.

Upon further research, the original post wasn't even directed at you. It was the bigots I was talking to. If you want to lump yourself in with them though, be my guest.
What the fuck....
I'm all for sexual freedom and shit, but seriously, this kid is [b]12 years old[/b]. A 12 year old boy who probably just hit puberty and started freaking out. And he has now made a permanent, irreversible decision that will affect the rest of his life.
He is immature, has no idea who he really is, and is WAY to young to make a decision like that.
The 12 year old father's famous story about why he became a father at age 12 has suddenly filled my head.

If you're against opinion leading to action, then I'm on your side.
What kind of parents would allow their 12 year old to have a sex change!?
He isn't even in puberty yet.

And when you're 18 you'll be completely different also.
All I can say is what the actual fuck.

But you aren't transgendered, so you don't really know what it's like though, mr. anime avatar.

This is hilarious.

If you think we are like skinheads you don't know/understand what skinheads are.
Honestly, I don't understand why anyone would ever want to get a sex change. Like, if you're a gay guy and you want a vagina, doesn't that insinuate you're hoping straight people are going to want to fuck you? But they won't, assuming you've told them that you used to be a man (unless you're a sick, deceptive mother fucker). And on the other hand no gay guys will probably want to fuck you because although you're technically a man, you have the appearance and functionality of a woman. So go figure.
I think it was highly irresponsible of the parents to let their kid do this at such a young age. I mean, the kid probably hasn't even hit puberty yet, and it's definitely possible that once he did his ideas about his sexuality could very well change.
This is going to sound memish but..
I lol'd. :v:
Hawt. :smug:

Being transgendered doesn't have anything to do with sexual orientation you dummy.
It's a matter of how you feel your body should be, not who you want to have sex with. And being transgendered (not transsexual, a transsexual is someone who actually follows through with switching their sex, while a person who is transgendered is someone who feels that they weren't born the appropriate sex, but is not necessarily a transsexual) is most definitely not a choice, it's a deeply rooted psychological issue for which sexual reassignment surgery is oftentimes (but not necessarily) the only satisfying solution.

Any Facepuncher who's played with a 12 year old admin in Gmod knows 12 year-olds are not fully capable of making critical decisions for others and sure as hell not capable of making critical decisions for themselves, and transgender counts as a double-crit decision.
Also school handled situation very badly. I sympathize with the parents angry at the school for not informing them ahead of time (as many of the other students did not take how they presented this info well.)
