Hello! (IMG:
style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) May I interject something?
Mystick: *I'm not mad at you, kk? lol* It isn't an issue of me wanting to become a girl. I already am. In mind, anyway. And I do have a counselor. He hasn't tried to deter me from the conclusions that I have about myself, as he is not a specialist who deals with transgendered people. He's helped me out a lot though, just by listening to me. *By the way, just gonna say it now, if I start getting snippy, I apologize in advance* And if what you were trying to do was explain to me that it'd be easier to change my mind then it would be to change my body, or that I should try to change my mind before I 'ruined' my body or some such, I understand and respect your opinion, but IMHO, it's quite wrong. You say that it would be...a mistake, that I would be...dissolusioned, to change my body. But I say the same about the mind. You say that I'm a 'youngster', and that I'm prolly too young to know who I am, that maybe somewhere along the way I got confused. But how can you be sure? What if that was not the case, and by trying to make me more of a 'man', to make me accept my body the way it is, and repress all atachments to the identity of being a girl, would mess me up more then if I just let it take it's course, and explore who I am? *Sorry if it seems like I'm putting words in your mouth* I don't know. I have felt to some degree or another since I was about 7 that I was supposed to be a girl. And I want to talk to a specialist about this, one who deals with transgendered people. And I would talk to them before I would make the (IMO) rash decsion (sp?) of trying to warp my mind with 'be more manly accept your body' therapy. *Oh, and sorry if I just stir things up again by posting this*
Any way, thanks for the warm welcome, everyone! (IMG:
