Heyho sorry for the double post. I just saw that tomorrow begin some really work heavy weeks for me so I won't be able to respond for quite some time. I really hate to cut you short here especially since I enjoyed our discussion. You were very friendly and offered me some new insight and I'm...

Please read below before you post :)

That's kind of what happened with a friend I had in college (totally different from the guy I mentioned earlier). A Japanese female presenting as male. I had no idea for the first year. He just looked like a small guy to me and I've known a lot of short Japanese males with slightly feminine...

Hopefully I did it. Maybe? We'll see. Thanks for your advice! I greatly appreciate it! To me, a man is such because they are sexually male. Gender is fluid and demanding that gender identity be called male or female only serves to further the concept of binary genders to insist to define a...

How do I delete things? Sorry :(

Sorry I still don't know how this qouting system here works exactly but I'll try to adress everything. Just to clear things up for me let me quickly get some points down. I want to make sure I got everything you're saying and don't mispresent your words. The first part: You and I both...

Unforunatley I have no insight in what therapy (and how well) was performed on the transgender community. I atleast think it's fair to say that if the mordern day psychiatrics and other researchers do not see any more benefit in trying to alter a person gender identity why even try it again...

Oh I don't mind these questions but I say this. I'm by no means an expert or have any medical degree. So I'll quote what I found during my quick internet research. As for therapy. Well as I already mentioned above very severe treaments like electroconvulsive therapy didn't help but also...

The problem with behavior therapy is that it didn't work. They tried changing gender identity to match the persons sex with various sometimes cruel treatment...

Sorry I tried to answer but the escapist somehow ate my post. I'll keep the post a lot shorter than the last one I typed. I think for most people there seems to be are more plausible (biological) explanation for transgender identities. We know of intersex conditions. We know that people...
