If a step on the path to enlightenment is to maintain an awareness and feeling and knowing that you are one with everything and everyone, male and female alike, and if you use the prefix to your gender (trans) to mean "beyond", then perhaps you are further along than you think? |

"For a long time it gave me nightmares, having to witness an injustice like that. It was a constant reminder of how unfair this world can be, I can still hear them taunting him. 'Silly Rabbit, Trix are for kids!'... How come they just couldn't give him some cereal?"
Have you ever thought about getting a DNA test to see if you had an extra X chromosome. |

Yes, it's possible I'm XXY trisomic. I'm mostly infertile, I've got a rather feminine face, and despite being nice and lean, I've still got bigger boobs than my sister (without the aid of hormones). The problem is that a test to actually find out is in the range of $800.00, which my insurance doesn't cover. -.- |

I don't have any questions, I think it's awesome that you're not letting society force you to conform |

Good luck with everything Maria92 |

Its a shame that you must live with not only being born with the wrong hardware but live in a world in which so many people have a narrow and fixed view of everything around them. |

Hehehe they're not very big at all. |

I think the point was - Christianity teaches Opposites - Buddhism teaches transcending the whole idea of opposites. |
|
I was talking about Buddhism, how did this end up a religious discussion? |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
Well, not just Buddhist. Before the Inquisition, non-binary thinking was prevalent. The Romans and the Greeks did it, as did the Philippians and the Indians. Some cultures still think in such a manner (Thailand is remarkably good at it in regards to gender identity). It isn't so much about transcending gender as it is finding your place...what makes you most comfortable. Goodness gracious, I couldn't live without opposites! I don't really identify as transgender (I mean yes, that's technically what I am...for the time being...); I identify as female. Not just not-male, but opposite it in many regards. |

I don't like the term opposite. I prefer polarity. |

One of the biggest stories in Denmark currently is about a 15-year-old boy who underwent a sex change operation. It is debated a lot about he might have been too young to undergo surgery. Do you think that there should be an age limit for sex change surgery or should it be up to the individual and his/her family? |

Ah, thanks, I just read about this. Honestly, I think there's a possibility you can't be entirely sure of your sexuality before 16-17+, but if you're actually willing to get your breasts removed and take hormones, then there's really no doubt. The earlier people can get on the path, the better things will go for them anyway. I'm not really shocked by Caspian getting operated, and I think it's nice to see both sides of the parliament showing positivity regarding the issue. |

Lost count of how many lucid dreams I've had

I know a young lady of 11 undergoing transition. She's attempting to get androgen blockers before puberty hits. I don't see anything wrong with this. The vast majority of transgender people know what they are by the age of 7. Some get it wrong, but for those who show such unwaivering doubt, that's another 7 years of happiness she wouldn't have otherwise had. If she has that lightbulb moment in another 10 or 20 years, that's still two decades of joy she wouldn't have otherwise had. I can't speak for her, but for me, that potential light is too dim and distant to wait for. |

Whatever happens~
Does electrolysis have good success rates? I know when I'm older I honestly want to undergo that procedure to remove all my body hair except on my face. I know I'm a guy and I don't want to undergo gender reassignment surgery but body hair in unecessary places makes me feel: |
