Did anyone watch this? It was repeat. There were kids on there that at the young age of 5 knew they were "in the wrong body". One of the children said "he wanted to cut off his penis". I felt so badly for these children and their families. The show did end on a happy note b/c a father seemed to, by the end of the show come to terms with is sons choice. Through out the show he was very upset with his wife for "giving in" to his son etc... but after hearing the pain older children had gone through trying to conform, at the end of the show he said "I am going to buy my son a doll on the way home".

i missed that show, but i was told about it.
it's so true though, from my personal experience, that these things do begin to appear to a child at that very young age. i know it did for me. and i really wonder what different decisions i wouldve made, and possibly what mistakes i wouldnt have made if i wouldve had the balls to talk about it and try to really understand my feelings before two years ago.
i am thankful that it seems to be not quite the stigma it was a few years back. people kill themselves over that shit, you know.

Parents talk about loving unconditionaly, but they are liars.
I was lucky, my parents just didn't care...i didn't have to kill myself for being a lesbian, because no one was watching.

No not that, but I was very late in their lives, and they were divorced when i was young (about 10). My mom meet a guy, my dad started dating 18 year olds, and they started enjoying the lives they always wanted. Unfortunitly (sp) I was still at home wondering what the hell happened.
So needless to say, I was not watched, or looked after and I just became who I am. i stayed away from drugs, and drinking, didn't end up PG (i wonder why)Made it home by my 3 am curfew and finished High School...the entire time lusting after women. They just didn't notice I wasn't dating only boys.
