*sigh* you seem not want to understand. None, but Tim himself who is not happy with his body. It's him and his feeling, not us.
There has to be a reason.

Why should I "google"? I've know about sexual reassignment treatments and surgeries for many years. The big difference with the Tim/Kim story is the age of the person going thru the process.

A very selective "truth". Such a weird family.

I thought you know that the public talks, listen radios, TV, medias, newspapers, etc in the everywhere...? That's how the children learn from them....
Yes, I know about modern media. I used to work in that field. Duh! Just because it's available doesn't mean it's appropriate to allow children access to it.

Anyone who choose to give their children honest answer or explain the honest examples in truthfully way for you is a werid. I remember your posts in my other threads that you don't like anyone who tell lies or make excuse... Here? I would not judge you as werid mother for choose to lie or make up the stories to your children. Why have you judge the parents as werid for choose to tell their children in honest way?

That's not what I said. Some people go way beyond simple honest answers to kids' questions. That is weird.

That's good because I never lied or made up stories for my daughter or grandsons.

What does "old times" have to do with anything? I'm talking about today's children. There is no good reason to expose young children to sexually oriented movies, TV programs, music, books, web sites, etc.

Being in the same room as a gay or transgendered person, and being exposed to explicit sex acts by anyone, are the two extremes. There's a range of experiences in between.

Sitting at a dining table with a group of people, straight, gay, or transgendered, is not a sexual situation, unless people begin discussing sexual topics, or acting in sexually suggestive ways. Straight or gay, that's not appropriate with children present.

My point is, why do children need to know what's happening in anyone's bedrooms? If they do have a curiosity, and ask questions, then fine, answer them. But most of the time, kids can enjoy their young lives without concerning themselves about what's happening in the grown-ups' bedrooms. Of course, part of the problem is bedroom activity is becoming more public and media activity.

Why can't kids just be kids for 12-14 years? They will have another 50-70 years left to worry about sexual relationships and situations. Isn't that enough?

Just 12-14 short years to ride bikes, skate, sled, read adventure stories, play with kittens and puppies, go fishing, jump rope, build Legos creations, act silly, play in the mud, climb trees, skip and tumble, make snowmen and snow forts, bounce a ball, collect sea shells and dead bugs, or just rest in the grass and look up at the clouds.

Sigh....
Dont I know it! Childhood is SO short! We are adults in most of our lifetimes so let the children enjoy their childhood and innocence as much as they can. I know TVs and media tend to portray sexual info. All we can try is to make sure our children are not exposed to anything that would be considered too mature for them. I know that I try my best. So far my 9 year old daughter seems clueless. Then again, I could be wrong about her cuz kids hear things at school.

I've always been against this mental "im a boy/girl trapped in a girl/boy's body!!!" It's bullshit. I've seen the theories on it, that your mind is mapped out at birth what gender you are and gets 'coded' wrong. It's completely ridiculous. I'm going to be against it till hell freezes over, but as for other people? They can do what they want. Do explictly note I have gay/lesbian/asexual friends so it has nothing to do with it, I just think it's a load of bullshit. A theory based on twisted data at best. Unless someone has data or information that people have felt like they've been trapped in oppositive sex's bodies since the dawn of man- before all this gay biz has been blown out of portion and all over the media, I refuse to believe it as a medical condition. I think it's more of a mental disorder that happens while the child is growing, the things they see and such can confuse them and give them obscure ideas like that they are born into the wrong sort of sex.

I do think I'm a girl in a guy's body, but I don't want to change because I don't really feel trapped. Especially since my soulmate is a girl--and a tomboy. She likes the way I am, and I'm liking the way I am now. My last gender identity test said I was 91% feminine, which is higher than most girls score on it!

But growing up, I had gender identity problems because I felt like a girl in a boy's body.

Most of this, I think, comes from the fact that girls who act like boys are respected these days, while boys who are girlish are ridiculed and harassed (I know I was...) and they assume we're gay. (I'm asexual, and in love with a girl, not gay.)

Those are my thoughts on this. Oh, and that's why I have a nice girly avatar and siggy.

Lol, that confused me for the longest time. At least I know you're a guy now.

I have a theory, basically upon birth you're expected to act a certian way. Either feminine or macho. What if the behavior of acting feminine or macho has nothing to do with sex? What if it's just something as random as having blue or green eyes? That's a way more plausible explaination because we, as a society gave this astigmatism. Who's to say a guy can't act like a chick if he wants? I used to have a friend, a guy who wore cotton candy prefume from walmart solely because he liked it. He didn't give a damn what anyone thought of him and did what he pleased, I respected him for that though he was also an ass so... he also lost some respect. Anyways my point is I don't believe that people can be wired a girl and trapped in a boys body because the feminine/macho behavor is something we created (I'm assuming this.)

While it is medicinically documented that there ARE babies who are born both sexes, or females with male testicles inside undevloped completely and males with breasts. I think it's what, we, as humans learn as we grow and how we want to act. It wouldn't bother me being proven wrong as seeing it's highly plausible and the fact that we barely understand the human mind as-is and how it works, but until then it's just... too hard to accept.

Dark-Half: I think you're onto something. I just never felt a need to be macho at all (as my avatar and sig show clearly...)

Wow.. I felt sorry for Kim that he can't do the SRS till the age of 18 instead of 16. My opinion it's very wrong for the government to make the age law against the transsexual processing...

Yeah I support that she should have an operation at age 16 instead of 18.
