 Posted: 23:11 - 20 Sep 2009 Post subject: Boy, 12, turns up for school as a girl after sex swap |
 |
|
A boy of 12 has started living as a girl and is preparing to become the world's youngest person to have a sex swap operation.
The youngster left classmates bewildered after he started his new school wearing a dress and with his hair in pigtails.
His parents, who are fully supporting his decision, have had his name changed by deed poll to that of a girl.
But the change has caused controversy at his secondary school where an emergency assembly was called after the boy was targeted by bullies.
Teachers told pupils to treat him as a female and to only refer to him by his new name.
But some parents say the handling of the issue has left their children upset and confused. One mother said the school should have informed parents by letter before the term started.
'They behaved appallingly by throwing this hand grenade into the room and then leaving the inevitable questions about it for unprepared parents,' she said.
'Maybe we could have encouraged our kids to be more sensitive if we'd had a chance to be involved.'
Another mother, whose daughter knew the boy from primary school, said: 'Parents surely have a right to know when their children are being confronted with such sensitive issues as gender realignment.
'It is not fair either for the child who is undergoing this change.
'The girl, as she now is, will go through hell because of how this has been handled.'
The boy, who has not been named and lives with his parents in a three-bedroom semi in an upmarket village in West Sussex, started at the 1,000-pupil comprehensive this month.
The headteacher had discussions with his parents before allowing him to start school as a girl. He has been given his own changing rooms and toilet.
Sources said the youngster had confided in friends that he wanted to be a girl and would put on a bikini to go swimming and use a Barbie towel. He rode to primary school on a pink scooter and wore pink ribbons in his hair.
His mother said: 'We are committed to ensuring the very best for our child. We are working with other agencies to ensure our child's welfare is protected.'
The boy has been absent from school in recent days because of the continued bullying and his family are under police protection after receiving threats with patrols regularly checking their home.
It is understood that the boy is preparing for an operation to change his gender. The first step is to take hormone treatment. But the procedure is illegal here until after puberty.
German Kim Petras - born Tim - became the world's youngest transsexual at 16 earlier this year.

Switch: Kim Petras is currently the world's youngest transsexual after having gender reassignment surgery earlier this year at the age of 16
Transgender counsellor David Hawley said the pupil had shown great 'strength of character'.
He added: 'It is very unusual for a child of that age to be so clear about what they want to do. She has had a lot of support from her parents.'

There is now apparently another one who is 9
I have not read into these stories but the media has made out that it is simply a case of young boys wanting to become girls, If this is the case then the parents are idiots and so are the people/organizations who let it happen.
A more genuine reason for this happening would be if the child had a particular hormone/hermaphrodite condition where they were almost half way between sexes, if this is the case I feel sorry for the children who have been exposed by the media for a condition that they have little control over. ____________________ Honda SFX50 > Aprilia SR125 > Aprilia RS125 > Honda RFV400 > K4 GSXR600 > KTM Duke > C1H 636 > K3 GSXR1000 > Aprilia RSV-R > Triumph Street Triple R > Ducati 899 Panigale > Aprilia Tuono 1100 > Triumph Daytona 675R > KTM SuperDuke 1290 2.0 |

I will never ever understand why people jump into a thread to announce that they do not care about the thread topic. Christ, if I went about writing "I dont care about this" in every BCF thread for which the statement was true I'd have to quit my job to make sure I got 'em all..... what is it you're expecting, a victory blow-job and cigar??

It is true though, the press leapt upon the idea of a child getting a sex change op when the truth is completely different. You can't have a sex change op in the UK until you are over 18 years of age, even then you are assessed after having lived as a female fully for a period not less than two years.
Only then does the hormone treatment start after which another period of time passes before surgery is contemplated.
I don't know if doug97 smokes crack or not, but he's right enough. I'm surprised you thought the story was correct coming as it does from the Daily Mail...
Personally? I would've advised my kids (if I had any) to hang fire on the frocks and bangs until a wee bit later in life. Although others have made a similar transition at a similar age without any fuss.
Kids are adaptable but they are also cruel. That headline is spurious and the story as reported in what is at best a total rag of a newspaper is misleading in the extreme.

I've a relative whose son is about 6 (might be 7 now), and as long as I can remember, he has always wanted to be a girl, to the point of "wanting to chop my winkie off" and bursting into tears after seeing a friend of ours (dressed as a Greek goddess for a fancy dress party) wailing that he could never be as beautiful as she was, because he's a boy.
Now, he's not had a strong male role model in his life, and this may be a reaction to seeing the attention his slightly elder sister gets (who is OCD and a control freak, but that's a different story) whenever she wants, but there may be a an underlying medical condition, maybe a set of ovaries up there, some wierd hormane activity, who knows.
Just having a surname change caused kids at our school to get unwanted attention. If, for whatever reason, the kid truly feels that something is wrong, and it's decided that gender reassignment (or whatever PC term du jour it is) is the way to go, then it's fucking stupid for the parents to let the kid go back to the same school where the kid was previously the other sex. ____________________ Chances are quite high you are not in my Monkeysphere, and I don't care about you.

I guess people can do what they want with their bodies, have bits chopped off or whatever.
However, as the recent hoo-haa about the south african athlete has shown, if you are genetically one gender, you will physically always be that gender, even if you chop bits off and take hormones.
Live and let live, etc but sadly the money of taxpayers will be wasted, and anyone saying unacceptable truths about their opinions on such daftness will be treated unfairly.
Politically correctness gone mad.
Chances are if the kid doesnt have the op, and just dresses as a girl for a bit, he will just grow out of his gender confusion.
Chop bits off, and he will have to pretend he is a girl for life and be cross with anyone who points out he isnt really a girl. ____________________ colin1 is officially faster than god |

As a 'scientist', where do you theorise the hormones would come from for this rage if he's got no gonads?

Super, uber, hyper pwnage.  |
Or at least it would be if the kid actually had his bollocks cut off. But he hasn't, and won't any time soon. |

Well you can;t set your watch to puberty, never heard the reports of girls as young as 9 beginning menstruation? It is perfectly plausible that this boy has already began puberty and thus is effected by hormonal imbalances. If you really want to get specific, testosterone precursors are formed within the zona reticularis of the adrenal cortex and many of these have androgenic activity comparable with testosterone itself. Thats my theory as a 'scientist'.
Or if you are referring to the fact that post-op he would have no testicles and therefore would have no testosterone? If he was post-op he would be doped up on female hormones, so the fact still remains, if not more so.
OR are you making a link between my use of the word "rage" and the presence of testosterone? Because I was speaking figuratively, in the sense that puberty as a whole clouds ones judgements.

Going by the article, it stated he was set to become the worlds youngest transexual, which means he has 4 years in which to beat the record, which is still too young to be making those kinds of decisions.
