@DavidEatsPaste I agree, Gender Dysphoria makes more sense and seems less offensive. I don't remember much about the details, but the chromosome makeup may get some XX data in XY or SRY which results in intersex individuals. I don't really know much about the details about it, however I have read that there's absolutely no link between transgenders and autism, only social issues which ar caused by others like anxiety and depression. HRT and SRS can sometimes lead to negative physical sideeffects
...poorly because of uneducated individuals that are raised to hate others for being slightly different. There are many transgendered individuals that have contributed a lot to society, and perhaps help reshape the world for the better. There are those that live their life scared and never go through the basics, HRT. These people often lived tormented and in pain, many that couldn't take it any more and didn't want to live in a world full of bigots. I'd go on but I'm already on post #2 :P
Transgendered individuals are no different from anyone else except they are treated unfairly for naturally having a opposite "gender"'s brain. Gender dysphoria doesn't change the intelligence or capabilities that they have. At the very least, transgendered women, male, genderless, and so forth are often brave enough to do what makes them happy and not live their life in accordance to backwards individuals like fomiz. Transgenders don't live in a happy world, they are often treated...
@universalman002 .. Is your world really that small to think that people who are transgender/transsexual are only in America? Really?!? I won't even touch on other parts of your comment because they are laughable, at best...
@fomiz .. I am not commenting to change your mind on how you feel about people who are transgender/transsexual since it is quite apparent that your mind has already been made up but to say that you can care less about a person if they were TG/TS is pretty damn low. What if it were own child, would you love them any less, disown them, have them go through a myriad of therapy sessions to try and change them? I really am genuinely interested in how you would handle the situation...
Damn I thought it happends only in America but not Japan has the sex change thing, wow I don't want to expect 6 inches between the legs damn what if a smoking hot chick that I like has a dick or has the dick cut off and I don't know ! Man this world is mind blowing, that I end up being a Catholic priest and I don't have to worry about someone that cuts its dick to become a woman !
@Universalman002 Yessssss.....end up being a Catholic priest so the devil can come a suck out your soulllll.....he is watching your every move....outside your window right now.....
@couchknowsall Thats an insult, OK well what will happend when the day I see books burning at Rome ? I bet you be on China's side but to me it seems like a God giving will for Ireland to use nuclear bombs on China because they might become a Britsh commonwealth and the Catholics their become protestants as I might know their be lost and what will happend it is going to be God's punishment to them for not agreeing with God that Japan did not do the Nanking stuff ! 99% of China will be killed
Sorry if this has been answered before in a previous video, but did he get his dog in Japan or bring it with him? And how old is Maggie? Thanks so much.
Thanks for this video and battling the bigots who posted here regarding the LGBTQ community. I am bisexual (could tell since I was 5). My lover is also bisexual and intersexed (born with intersex condition. both male and female at the same time. Not trans). My uncle is transgendered, soon to become my aunt ^^. I am actually curious how the Japanese think of and treat the LGBTQ community. BGF and I do want to go to Japan and wonder how bisexuality and being intersexed is perceived there. :)
I think the knee jerk reaction is a bit juvenile, but so are most people's when dealing with something they don't know much about. It's not very common here, but there are quite celebrities that are gay, trans, etc. so it isn't unknown. In the end, most people, I imagine, have no real thoughts about it because it simple isn't "out there". In Thailand, on the other hand, I hear it's no big deal and widely accepted. . . course, I'm no expert.
con't .... those who do not fit the "normal" gender construct of male/female. Although, given most (if not all) people would see me as male and wouldn't know even fathom a guess that I was biologically born female unless I told them. Nevertheless (since I really can go on and on) in regards to this subject, I'll just end my comment with a thanks. Thanks.
Thanks for the video, I certainly appreciate videos that bring issue (although, issues that can be at odds with people) to light. For the past few months I have been trying to do some research on being transgender in Japan but there really is not much out there. Being transgender myself (female to male, to be more specific) and looking to either spend a quite a bit of time in Japan in terms of vacation or maybe perhaps taking up residence in Japan, I also like to know how society treats ...
@Gimmeaflakeman people are rbinging up that the family registry is for blood relatives only. But I heard that a wife can be added to the registry so why not a child of that wife but not necessarily of blood relation to the father?
A woman is XX, a man is XY. There are abnormalities where a person can be XXY (Klinefelter syndrome) or XYY. This genotype cannot be changed with surgery or mediciness. However, someday it may be possible to make changes with use of Stem Cells. Who knows!
@fightprejudice gonna be picky here sorry... but the genotype can not be changed it's the phenotype that is changed.. although I'm happy to see someone throw in the technical terms.... thumbs up!
@billiem07 I am talking about the genetic make up. You could surgically change the appearance (phenotype) but still it will be just fake. The genotype of course cannot be changes as I said in my posting. But with stem cells? I do not know. Stem cells are being used now to treat genetic disease by changing (or correcting) the proteins substitutions within the gene. About the sex make up I do not know. Time (and science) will tell.
I find this topic quite interesting. I'm also subbed to quite a few transgenders and I think they are very brave to do create such videos. I love to see their transition. It's like a beautiful flower blossoming.
Good video cant wait for the follow up and opinions. Random question, would you do a video about adoption/give opinions on that as well? I heard/read news stories ect, saying how its kinda frowned upon over there. Was a long time ago when I was told this but just randomly thought of it because of this video :)
@Gimmeaflakeman See. if I walked around saying I'm a robot or a superhero that wouldn't change the fact that I'm neither. If I persisted in such beliefs would you just agree with me so wholeheartedly or would you think there's something wrong with me?
Completely crappy comparison. I'll tell you why. What is the genetic difference between a male and female? It's less than 1%. What is the genetic difference between a man and a robot? Immeasurable. And a superhero is toooooo vague to even talk about. Sexuality is not on and off. It's like the color spectrum. One day you're gonna get a funky feeling and then maybe you'll rethink your judgmental bs.
@Gimmeaflakeman So it's okay to think you're something you're NOT based on a "funky feeling"?
Don't get me wrong. I think there's real reasons for being gay, I just don't think everyone who says they're gay actually is, any more than everybody who says they're straight is actually straight.
I may have assumed you were implying something you were not. If so apologies. All I'm saying is it is quite possible that you do feel comfortable in your own body. Why is it so difficult to imagine that someone is a man trapped inside a woman's body? Or vice versa? Just because YOU don't feel that way and never have does not mean it isn't possible. And you denying it based on your own narrow or limited experiences does not invalidate the possibility that it is true.
I suppose you could say, "Too bad, kid. You got stuck in a body with the wrong equipment." Which is how people dealt with this 100s of years ago. But we've advanced medically & as a society. Now, I do not know if the person in this article or all people with GID want sex changes, but if they feel they are the opposite sex, & they have supporting medical witnesses (i.e. doctors' notes) why not let them legally change their status? I mean why or how does it impose on your or society?
@Gimmeaflakeman I can see how it could impose on a society. It drugs they take and surgeries the endure could be payed for by the State.....which is funded by tax payers. Same argument applies for abortions.
I would like for people to be happy but really the technology isnt truely there to change a man or women INTO the opossite sex. Not yet.
@1acroyear1 It's not called a disorder just to give someone like you a target. Although I'm certain it isn't necessary since haters always find a reason to hate, even twisting the meaning of something to suit their bigotry. Gender Identity Disorder is called a disorder because it is a disorder for them, not against them. They struggle with knowing in their hearts and minds that they are one sex but looking in the mirror they see another.
@billiem07 See? You hit the nail right on the head. it's an issue of the MIND. Of course, putting things like ambiguous genitalia to the side there are probably real biological reasons for being gay but that's not what I'm talking about. You have straight people who deny the fact that they're gay and then come out. So why is it out of the question for someone to think they're gay when they're actually straight? Is there some double standard here you want to justify?
@1acroyear1 Honestly from both of your comments I'm not sure what you are talking about. I was responding to your someone calling it was it is/disorder comment. In my case I thought you were being prejudicial. Now you are talking about cases that are too complex to discuss in YT's allowed character limit. So what point exactly are you trying to make here?
@billiem07 Basically what I'm saying is that there is such a thing as a sexual identity disorder just like there are other kinds of identity disorders. True, to unilaterally label everyone who is gay as having a disorder is wrong, but I believe the opposite to be true as well. If being gay is "normal" (for want of a better word) then they're subject to the same kinds of abnormalities as everyone else, too.
@1acroyear1 Hmm OK. Shrug. Still a bit confused about your point. Being gay is normal so that was a perfect word for it. You don't have to be just like everyone else to be normal. Gender Identity disorder is used for a very specific population of people that do not see themselves as gay but the wrong phenotypic gender. But seeing as how people being gay is so threatening to some it always gets thrown in the mix when discussing sexuality that isn't considered "normal".
@billiem07 My point is exactly about the way people see themselves. How many girls look in the mirror and see themselves as fat even if they're rail-thin? How many people think themselves superior to the masses when they're in fact a detriment to the gene pool? The way one feels and the reality of things are not always the same.
@1acroyear1 this is true but and this is a hopeful but doctors are not taking these everyday misgivings as a definition of someone's ability to identify themselves as one gender or another. in fact in order to get a sex change operation it is considered unethical for a doctor to fail to make just that proper assessment prior to the operation although there are some unethical doctors.
In my opinion, this person deserves the right to get his child registrated. Such a disorder is surely not the funniest thing to have and I am pretty sure that one has drastic psychological problems with it. There's also this girl, Kim Petras, here in Germany who was "born in the wrong body" and that's also an interesting story about this topic.
It doesnt bother me if a women is a women or was a man, its down to personality and whether you get on. and i thought most countries had a form of registration. You have birth certificates, marrage certificates. Ok its not one book but its still registration. And i dont why not being biological gender should effect a persons rights to those who are biological. surely if a person was allowe to change gender then other rights should also be equal.
You know i can sympathize with the bureaucratic red tape involved in situations like this. It's not easy being different in a society.
However, you are different. You should expect abrasive situations like this. It's only been twenty some years that we've started impregnating humans outside of traditional means sexual intercourse.
There's a limit to how fast you can expect society to bend to concepts that it has deemed "non-traditional". Change takes time.
I also have a question: Technically, didn't the man just adopt his child? If so, do couples with adopted children face this same problem or is it something related to the fact that the man is transgender?
Thanks for doing the video, Victor! I'd also love to know the turn out of this situation. I just want to clarify something: Transgender is the western term for "Gender Identity Disorder" (in simple terms. transgender is really more of an umbrella term for a bunch of different things), and in the video you made it seem like this was a new thing or something exclusive to Japan. It's not, and I just wanted to clarify that. :) (The term is also used in other countries, I believe.)
This nonsense if finally reaching Japan?Such a shame!The words "disorder" & "handicap" accurately describe this kind of behavior.Do you realizes in the States now there are children as young as 8 YEARS OLD claiming transgender and doctors are trying to insist that these CHILDREN should have sex changes. Lord a mercy when on earth is this acceptance of such utter confusion and madness going to end?
I knew by age 7 -- that I can remember -- that I liked girls. If I were gay or felt like a girl I'm sure I would know by that age. There is no shame in it. It's just life. Why do you care? Why the judgmental attitude?
@Gimmeaflakeman I dont give a damn what transexuals do in their own life.I only care that in the future if I've kids this nonsense is so widespread/acceptable that they'll be influenced to copy it.I know when I was a kid I was easily influenced by my environment & if 99% of the people I knew were gay I'd probably think thats the norm & be the same myself.Scientifically the brain doesn't mature until mid-20s but of course you aint interested in science,are you?
@fomiz The hypocrisy is many people claim to pro-equality for transexuals etc.but Im pretty sure a majority of those same individuals would throw the world's biggest tantrum if their kids did it.Like I asked,where does it end?2 girls 1cup?If a niche group want to record themselves eating shit & they aint hurting nobody else why are there laws banning it?Likewise polygamous marriages between consenting adults is banned yet changing an 8 year old's gender is perfectly fine.Please!
Look, I'm no expert on this at all, but there are people who are. Are you? BTW, I did a tiny bit of research and googled "post op sex change happiness" just to see if the post-op patients were mostly happy. LOOKS LIKE (from my limited research) that many are not, but the question is why? Were they unable to integrate? Insufficient social networks? Who knows. So many sex operations aren't for everyone. But I'm not knowledgable enough to say with any confidence that it is NONSENSE!
BTW, pls pm me links to the case you initially brought up. You wrote: "...children as young as 8 YEARS OLD claiming transgender and doctors are trying to insist that these CHILDREN should have sex changes. "
I just remembered who you were: he guy who likes me but thinks I'm a bigot. Never did get any evidence backing that claim either, btw....
(My youtube mailbox awaits your links.)
I did find this: watch?v=G8vqL6sv1lM
Doesn't look like the parents undertook this decision lightly.
@Gimmeaflakeman Just seen your reply now.YT isnt doing too well with these reply notifications,anyway,I never claimed to be an expert & didnt believe I must be in order to give an opinion.Just like you give your opinion in your videos on topics you're not an expert in.Anway,I personally refer to transgender as nonsense not to attack it but because I do not derive any sense from it,similarly to not deriving sense from vacuuming a clean carpet or boiling water that is already hot
(contuned) If someone's chromosomes have determined for them to be a specific gender long before they had the ability to rationally (I use this term very loosely in this situation) think then how could they think they know better than what nature intended for them?Just curious, not actually expecting an answer from you..."I just remembered who you were: he guy who likes me but thinks I'm a bigot.".Whatever gave you the impression that I like you, moron? LOL. Kidding!
(continued)Been meaning to send that PM for ages;I'll send it now.BTW I watched your link & honestly I felt so terrible for the kid.Not because of the bullying he's receiving but from the lack of direction from his parents.Kids are very impressionable & I'd be really interested to know how that little boy genuinely got the idea in his head of being a girl trapped inside a boys body & whether co-signing his belief actually encourage his behavior,whereas simply telling him no would stop it
(finally continue) The Tyra Banks show is where I watched the show on transgender kids as young as 6 years old but it was on TV.I have mananged to find a link here on YT.It's not the best but you'll get the idea. /watch?v=2mYvj6bEpQM
Well, since you don't know how the boy got that belief and it's not your kid -- hell you don't even know the kid -- how about holding off judgement? There are so many injustices in the world. I mean you MAY BE RIGHT, but you can't do anything about it. You really want to show you care about humanity, donate some of your money to children dying of hunger and thirst in a third world country. At least then you'll KNOW you're doing some good. In the end, sexuality all becomes irrelevant.
@Gimmeabreakman A shame,I was actually hoping you were going to give me reasons why transgender is a good or useful thing in society,other than the standard if it's not effecting you or you can't change it,why do you care response. Anyway, we'll just have to agree to disagree.That being said,I do donate to charities,did so last week for the Philippines,but I am cautious who I donate to.I know of many charities dishonestly profiteering from poor people's misfortune.
@Gimmeaflakeman Comparing blacks,atheists & dog owners with transgenders?LMAO.Really dont see any comparison but anyway,thanks for the laugh though.I agree transgenders are vulnerable members of our society & should be protected.By getting the pyschiatric help they need,not operations.I wonder how tolerant you' be if your wife decided to become transgender or you had a kid that did it.Anyway,I dont want to get personal with you over this matter,like I said let's agree to disagree
@fomiz You completely missed the point. The point is to ask "How is *insert any group here* good for society?" is an extremely bigoted and nonsensical question. Bigots always obsess over the irrelevant. What IS the irrelevant? One's race, skin pigment, social class,age, sex, sexual orientation, or anything that describes WHAT a person is. WHAT a person is makes no difference.
@fomiz (continued) Also, WHAT a person is is NOT a lifestyle. It is who they are and who they choose to become that determines if they are "good for society" or not. For example, are they a bully? Harm others? Help others? A criminal? Rapist? An educator? A doctor? A murderer? A con artist? These are examples of the who which tell you if they are beneficial for society or not. The WHAT are distractions to keep you from seeing who they are and recognizing that we are the same b/c we r human.
@GrenGoddess You make a lot of sense actually. Seriously dude, I cant fault what you say at all about the benefit to society aspect. I'm gonna send you a PM about this topic of the video, because CERTAIN PEOPLE, not naming any names (victor) have failed to understand this transgender thing and come at me with sarcasm and expect me to get it.
It's sad that you completely missed my sarcasm. Why do I waste my time with you? What about your extremely stupid question in the first place?:"Why transgender is a good or useful thing in society"?
They need psychological help! Look in the mirror, blind man.
You throw out hypotheticals as if they mean anything. They don't. I would be OK. Been there. And I'm betting you would too. I mean if you really cared about someone, you'd understand. To not, would be um, bigoted.
@Gimmeaflakeman Explain what the sarcasm was.Hang on a minute,wait a second,that would be a waste of time,wouldn't it? I guess by your definition of caring I'd fail,because there's no way on earth I would accept a family member of mine being transgender.Born a woman & having an operation to change to a man, or visa versa.Cant work with it,cant win with it,well I cant anyway.I'd probably limit contact with them & if that make me a bigot I'll happily wear the crown.
@fomiz I can't help but laugh at you with this rant. So weak minded that you think that society accepting a child as they are is a threat to your currently nonexistent child, then hysterically taking it from a small percentage of the population to 99%.
Just so you know the brain constantly matures from gestation/birth through adolescence INTO the 20s and continuously remodels itself in response to stimuli throughout adulthood. So you might not be interested in science either.
@billiem07 What are you talking about?I suggest you go back to high-school & learn something! Just because brains respond to stimuli doesnt mean it's developed or developing.The amygdala(emotion),nucleus acumbens(inpulses),prefrontal cortex(risk assessment) are not fully form/developed until adolescent/mid-20s which emphasizes my point that an 8 years old is not ready to decide to be a transexual.The 99% example was to highlight that personal choice is influenced by social acceptance.
@fomiz Sorry I went and got one of those pesky PhDs so high school is unnecessary. Again you're hysterical. And by that I mean a good laugh and the psychological equivalent. If personal choice was so influenced by social acceptance then people wouldn't choose to "come out". I'm glad you are studying science and throwing in a valid point on age appropriate decisions to support your bigoted ideals. Scientists around the world love when that happens (this is sarcasm).
@billiem07 Oh I say! Step aside! There is a learned fellow in our midst. A PhD in gibberish doesn't qualify you on all subject matter, and are you really trying argue the point that an individual's personal choice is not influence by social acceptance? Please! Anyway, I'm done with you. Call me a bigot and hurl as much ad hominem at me as you like but you still haven't convinced me that 8 year old transexuals are wrong & being a transexuals in general is abnormal behavior.
@fomiz ah Done with me! but you're making me laugh so much. It's a travesty as well as a train wreck of human existence when a person such as yourself who seems literate can't overcome being weak minded and hateful. But alas i think you only "encourage anyone to come&school" your "dumbass" when you agree with them. If there is anything I can get about you from your comments is that you cherry pick science facts, public opinion, case studies and even YT comments to support your bigotry.
@billiem07 Now kindly fuckoff because I wasn't even addressing you in the first place. I was merely giving a frank response to a question Victor asked me.
@Gimmeaflakeman While i can understand your attitude i can also understand his.
Consider this. Those kids will ALWAYS be a man/women. So they will have to have injections and take pills yet will still always be one. Plus what happens if when they hit puberty they decide they want to be a man or a women? They cant their stuck.
I dont mind them being gay why should i but surgery and such isnt the way to go.
@valcan321 You know thats a very valid point,which I never even thought about.Is it true that the post implications of surgery for transexuals amongst other things is a lifetime of medication?If that is true,then isn't that an indication that they weren't meant to change their sex in the first place?I mean,Im all for freedom of choice etc.but where do you draw line,if a line needs to be drawn at all?Lets just allow everyone to do whatever they want providing they aint hurt nobody else
@fomiz The problem isnt what is MENT to be but what is. A humans DNA is encoded to do certain things...suddenly change sex not included. If you get sex change surgery and your a women there are things your still gonna have to deal with. Acording to your DNA YOU are still female it cares not what you think or wish.
For a Man it means a lifetime of estrogen injections and very expensive surgeries. Ditto on the surgeries for women.
Men can love men and women love women but they cant BE one.
@valcan321 That makes perfect sense to me & I'd even go as far to say homosexuality is also a disorder.I can understand love for another person of the same sex like the love for a parent,sibling or close family member but as for the sex part that's just confusing as hell to me.As far as I was taught during intercourse an erect penis has no business going any place other than inside a moist vagina & as crude as that may sound to some,the idea of gay sex seems to me much more uncouth
@fomiz And before I start getting responses commenting on how hateful I am etc. I'll reiterate the point I made quite clearly before. Besides the fact that I do not have any hate for gays or transexuals, I really couldn't care less how they choose to fuck up their life; that is their prerogative, just like it is mine not to like what they do or consider it appropriate behavior.
@fomiz I wouldnt say that. While i am not comfortable with it it is actucally kinda natural among some species. Hell it has been practiced by some human culture for a long time.
Now these men still had sex with women and vice versa it was more it wasnt considered taboo. Many Arab cultures have alot of it in early life because access to women is so restricted some carry on through adulthood.
@valcan321 I sent you a PM because my reply was way too long for this comments box and besides it would probably just attract unnecessary criticism from gay people or their so-called supporters, despite the fact that I have gay friends myself and they themselves know I don't agree with that particular part of their life.
@Gimme The hypocrisy is many people claim to pro-equality for transexuals etc.but Im pretty sure a majority of those same individuals would throw the world's biggest tantrum if their kids did it.Like I asked,where does it end?2 girls 1cup?If a niche group want to record themselves eating shit & they aint hurting nobody else why are there laws banning it?Likewise polygamous marriages between consenting adults is banned yet changing an 8 year old's gender is perfectly fine.Please!
@fomiz I agree with you, People don't know how to accept and love themselves the way they were made. If you are a Man than thats what you are, i don't even consider someone who gets a sex change to be of that gender, to me its just playing dress up.
@gameoncloud9 This might sound really ignorant /uneducated to most people but I agree with you too.In my opinion anyone having a sex change is a "transexual",theyre neither man nor woman.If I've indirectly offended anyone then I can only apologize,but as far as I was taught in high-school,men produce sperm&women produce ovums.Now,there was the odd occasion when I ditched so if I wasnt present for the class covering transgender I encourage anyone to come&school my dumbass!Peace!
@fomiz A man/women can never actually change to their opposite sex. If some faggot pretended to be a women and was burned to ash the coroner can check the victims DNA and know it was that of a mans. If such person wanted to be a woman he would have to take out the Y chromosome out of his cells, a rather simplistic/unreal "sex change". But these ppl defined it in a way that pretending somehow does make you something your not. Why apologize?
I hope that everything goes well for the man and his child is sucessfully registered. Now that I think about it, it'd be convenient if more countries had a family registry.
This is a really big deal. I live in sweden and I am FtM. You need so much done before something really happens, although oneself has to do the most in the end :)
I know people here getting babies after doing this and get a baby afterwards, but it seems to be ok. I couldn't agree more it's a bit odd, then I understand FtM doing this since there wouldn't be any other way to get a child. I don't want children. I could deal with a partner having a kid from before. (y) that you bring this up
I'm suffering from Income Class Disorder, I wasn't meant to be middle class, is there a form I can send somewhere to change from middle class to upper class? It's so hard to be a billionaire trapped in the lifestyle of the middle class.
Actually good point here. DO NOT compliment women in Japan too much less your intent be misinterpreted. I once told a student that her writing was improving and the next week I had a love note from her. Tomoko, on the other hand, is well versed in the act of deflecting hits. I've known her for years, and so has my wife. Our biggest problem was keeping Maggie from eating her poodle.
Transexuality shouldn't be considered as a disease or disorder.

@DavidEatsPaste I agree, Gender Dysphoria makes more sense and seems less offensive. I don't remember much about the details, but the chromosome makeup may get some XX data in XY or SRY which results in intersex individuals. I don't really know much about the details about it, however I have read that there's absolutely no link between transgenders and autism, only social issues which ar caused by others like anxiety and depression. HRT and SRS can sometimes lead to negative physical sideeffects

You got your dog's sex changed? O.o There's a story behind this....
Anyways, you can legally change your gender but not marry someone of the same sex in Japan? Interesting.

Transgendered individuals are no different from anyone else except they are treated unfairly for naturally having a opposite "gender"'s brain. Gender dysphoria doesn't change the intelligence or capabilities that they have. At the very least, transgendered women, male, genderless, and so forth are often brave enough to do what makes them happy and not live their life in accordance to backwards individuals like fomiz. Transgenders don't live in a happy world, they are often treated...

Thanks for this video and battling the bigots who posted here regarding the LGBTQ community. I am bisexual (could tell since I was 5). My lover is also bisexual and intersexed (born with intersex condition. both male and female at the same time. Not trans). My uncle is transgendered, soon to become my aunt ^^. I am actually curious how the Japanese think of and treat the LGBTQ community. BGF and I do want to go to Japan and wonder how bisexuality and being intersexed is perceived there. :)

@AshG321M
I think the knee jerk reaction is a bit juvenile, but so are most people's when dealing with something they don't know much about. It's not very common here, but there are quite celebrities that are gay, trans, etc. so it isn't unknown. In the end, most people, I imagine, have no real thoughts about it because it simple isn't "out there". In Thailand, on the other hand, I hear it's no big deal and widely accepted. . . course, I'm no expert.

Thanks for the video, I certainly appreciate videos that bring issue (although, issues that can be at odds with people) to light. For the past few months I have been trying to do some research on being transgender in Japan but there really is not much out there. Being transgender myself (female to male, to be more specific) and looking to either spend a quite a bit of time in Japan in terms of vacation or maybe perhaps taking up residence in Japan, I also like to know how society treats ...

A woman is XX, a man is XY. There are abnormalities where a person can be XXY (Klinefelter syndrome) or XYY. This genotype cannot be changed with surgery or mediciness. However, someday it may be possible to make changes with use of Stem Cells. Who knows!

@billiem07 I am talking about the genetic make up. You could surgically change the appearance (phenotype) but still it will be just fake. The genotype of course cannot be changes as I said in my posting. But with stem cells? I do not know. Stem cells are being used now to treat genetic disease by changing (or correcting) the proteins substitutions within the gene. About the sex make up I do not know. Time (and science) will tell.

Completely crappy comparison. I'll tell you why. What is the genetic difference between a male and female? It's less than 1%. What is the genetic difference between a man and a robot? Immeasurable. And a superhero is toooooo vague to even talk about. Sexuality is not on and off. It's like the color spectrum.

@Gimmeaflakeman So it's okay to think you're something you're NOT based on a "funky feeling"?
Don't get me wrong. I think there's real reasons for being gay, I just don't think everyone who says they're gay actually is, any more than everybody who says they're straight is actually straight.

@1acroyear1
I may have assumed you were implying something you were not. If so apologies. All I'm saying is it is quite possible that you do feel comfortable in your own body. Why is it so difficult to imagine that someone is a man trapped inside a woman's body? Or vice versa? Just because YOU don't feel that way and never have does not mean it isn't possible. And you denying it based on your own narrow or limited experiences does not invalidate the possibility that it is true.

I suppose you could say, "Too bad, kid. You got stuck in a body with the wrong equipment." Which is how people dealt with this 100s of years ago. But we've advanced medically & as a society. Now, I do not know if the person in this article or all people with GID want sex changes, but if they feel they are the opposite sex, & they have supporting medical witnesses (i.e. doctors' notes) why not let them legally change their status? I mean why or how does it impose on your or society?

@Gimmeaflakeman I can see how it could impose on a society. It drugs they take and surgeries the endure could be payed for by the State.....which is funded by tax payers. Same argument applies for abortions.

valcan321 1 month ago
@1acroyear1 It's not called a disorder just to give someone like you a target. Although I'm certain it isn't necessary since haters always find a reason to hate, even twisting the meaning of something to suit their bigotry. Gender Identity Disorder is called a disorder because it is a disorder for them, not against them. They struggle with knowing in their hearts and minds that they are one sex but looking in the mirror they see another.
billiem07 1 month ago
@billiem07 See? You hit the nail right on the head. it's an issue of the MIND. Of course, putting things like ambiguous genitalia to the side there are probably real biological reasons for being gay but that's not what I'm talking about. You have straight people who deny the fact that they're gay and then come out. So why is it out of the question for someone to think they're gay when they're actually straight? Is there some double standard here you want to justify?
1acroyear1 1 month ago
@1acroyear1 Honestly from both of your comments I'm not sure what you are talking about. I was responding to your someone calling it was it is/disorder comment. In my case I thought you were being prejudicial. Now you are talking about cases that are too complex to discuss in YT's allowed character limit. So what point exactly are you trying to make here?
billiem07 1 month ago
@billiem07 Basically what I'm saying is that there is such a thing as a sexual identity disorder just like there are other kinds of identity disorders. True, to unilaterally label everyone who is gay as having a disorder is wrong, but I believe the opposite to be true as well. If being gay is "normal" (for want of a better word) then they're subject to the same kinds of abnormalities as everyone else, too.
1acroyear1 1 month ago
@1acroyear1 Hmm OK. Shrug. Still a bit confused about your point. Being gay is normal so that was a perfect word for it. You don't have to be just like everyone else to be normal. Gender Identity disorder is used for a very specific population of people that do not see themselves as gay but the wrong phenotypic gender. But seeing as how people being gay is so threatening to some it always gets thrown in the mix when discussing sexuality that isn't considered "normal".
billiem07 1 month ago
@billiem07 My point is exactly about the way people see themselves. How many girls look in the mirror and see themselves as fat even if they're rail-thin? How many people think themselves superior to the masses when they're in fact a detriment to the gene pool? The way one feels and the reality of things are not always the same.
1acroyear1 1 month ago
@1acroyear1 this is true but and this is a hopeful but doctors are not taking these everyday misgivings as a definition of someone's ability to identify themselves as one gender or another. in fact in order to get a sex change operation it is considered unethical for a doctor to fail to make just that proper assessment prior to the operation although there are some unethical doctors.

In my opinion, this person deserves the right to get his child registrated. Such a disorder is surely not the funniest thing to have and I am pretty sure that one has drastic psychological problems with it. There's also this girl, Kim Petras, here in Germany who was "born in the wrong body" and that's also an interesting story about this topic.

It doesnt bother me if a women is a women or was a man, its down to personality and whether you get on. and i thought most countries had a form of registration. You have birth certificates, marrage certificates. Ok its not one book but its still registration. And i dont why not being biological gender should effect a persons rights to those who are biological. surely if a person was allowe to change gender then other rights should also be equal.

You know i can sympathize with the bureaucratic red tape involved in situations like this. It's not easy being different in a society.
However, you are different. You should expect abrasive situations like this. It's only been twenty some years that we've started impregnating humans outside of traditional means sexual intercourse.
There's a limit to how fast you can expect society to bend to concepts that it has deemed "non-traditional". Change takes time.

Thanks for doing the video, Victor! I'd also love to know the turn out of this situation.

It's not, and I just wanted to clarify that. :) (The term is also used in other countries, I believe.)

Harm others? Help others? A criminal? Rapist? An educator? A doctor? A murderer? A con artist? These are examples of the who which tell you if they are beneficial for society or not. The WHAT are distractions to keep you from seeing who they are and recognizing that we are the same b/c we r human.

@fomiz I can't help but laugh at you with this rant. So weak minded that you think that society accepting a child as they are is a threat to your currently nonexistent child, then hysterically taking it from a small percentage of the population to 99%.
Just so you know the brain constantly matures from gestation/birth through adolescence INTO the 20s and continuously remodels itself in response to stimuli throughout adulthood. So you might not be interested in science either.
billiem07 1 month ago
@billiem07 What are you talking about?I suggest you go back to high-school & learn something! Just because brains respond to stimuli doesnt mean it's developed or developing.The amygdala(emotion),nucleus acumbens(inpulses),prefrontal cortex(risk assessment) are not fully form/developed until adolescent/mid-20s which emphasizes my point that an 8 years old is not ready to decide to be a transexual.The 99% example was to highlight that personal choice is influenced by social acceptance.
fomiz 1 month ago
@fomiz Sorry I went and got one of those pesky PhDs so high school is unnecessary. Again you're hysterical. And by that I mean a good laugh and the psychological equivalent. If personal choice was so influenced by social acceptance then people wouldn't choose to "come out". I'm glad you are studying science and throwing in a valid point on age appropriate decisions to support your bigoted ideals. Scientists around the world love when that happens (this is sarcasm).

@fomiz The problem isnt what is MENT to be but what is. A humans DNA is encoded to do certain things...suddenly change sex not included. If you get sex change surgery and your a women there are things your still gonna have to deal with. Acording to your DNA YOU are still female it cares not what you think or wish.
For a Man it means a lifetime of estrogen injections and very expensive surgeries. Ditto on the surgeries for women.
Men can love men and women love women but they cant BE one.

@valcan321 That makes perfect sense to me & I'd even go as far to say homosexuality is also a disorder.I can understand love for another person of the same sex like the love for a parent,sibling or close family member but as for the sex part that's just confusing as hell to me.As far as I was taught during intercourse an erect penis has no business going any place other than inside a moist vagina & as crude as that may sound to some,the idea of gay sex seems to me much more uncouth

@fomiz And before I start getting responses commenting on how hateful I am etc. I'll reiterate the point I made quite clearly before. Besides the fact that I do not have any hate for gays or transexuals, I really couldn't care less how they choose to fuck up their life; that is their prerogative, just like it is mine not to like what they do or consider it appropriate behavior.

@fomiz I wouldnt say that. While i am not comfortable with it it is actucally kinda natural among some species. Hell it has been practiced by some human culture for a long time.
Now these men still had sex with women and vice versa it was more it wasnt considered taboo. Many Arab cultures have alot of it in early life because access to women is so restricted some carry on through adulthood.
Not really comfortable with it but..
However being gay doesnt require surgery.

@valcan321 I sent you a PM because my reply was way too long for this comments box and besides it would probably just attract unnecessary criticism from gay people or their so-called supporters, despite the fact that I have gay friends myself and they themselves know I don't agree with that particular part of their life.

@Gimme The hypocrisy is many people claim to pro-equality for transexuals etc.but Im pretty sure a majority of those same individuals would throw the world's biggest tantrum if their kids did it.Like I asked,where does it end?2 girls 1cup?If a niche group want to record themselves eating shit & they aint hurting nobody else why are there laws banning it?Likewise polygamous marriages between consenting adults is banned yet changing an 8 year old's gender is perfectly fine.Please!

@fomiz I agree with you, People don't know how to accept and love themselves the way they were made. If you are a Man than thats what you are, i don't even consider someone who gets a sex change to be of that gender, to me its just playing dress up.

@gameoncloud9 This might sound really ignorant /uneducated to most people but I agree with you too.In my opinion anyone having a sex change is a "transexual",theyre neither man nor woman.If I've indirectly offended anyone then I can only apologize,but as far as I was taught in high-school,men produce sperm&women produce ovums.Now,there was the odd occasion when I ditched so if I wasnt present for the class covering transgender I encourage anyone to come&school my dumbass!Peace!

@fomiz A man/women can never actually change to their opposite sex. If some faggot pretended to be a women and was burned to ash the coroner can check the victims DNA and know it was that of a mans. If such person wanted to be a woman he would have to take out the Y chromosome out of his cells, a rather simplistic/unreal "sex change". But these ppl defined it in a way that pretending somehow does make you something your not. Why apologize?

I hope that everything goes well for the man and his child is sucessfully registered. Now that I think about it, it'd be convenient if more countries had a family registry.

This is a really big deal. I live in sweden and I am FtM. You need so much done before something really happens, although oneself has to do the most in the end :)
I know people here getting babies after doing this and get a baby afterwards, but it seems to be ok. I couldn't agree more it's a bit odd, then I understand FtM doing this since there wouldn't be any other way to get a child. I don't want children. I could deal with a partner having a kid from before. (y) that you bring this up

I believe that in the U.S., transgendered people have to get a "note" from a psychologist.

I'm suffering from Income Class Disorder, I wasn't meant to be middle class, is there a form I can send somewhere to change from middle class to upper class? It's so hard to be a billionaire trapped in the lifestyle of the middle class.

Actually good point here. DO NOT compliment women in Japan too much less your intent be misinterpreted. I once told a student that her writing was improving and the next week I had a love note from her. Tomoko, on the other hand, is well versed in the act of deflecting hits. I've known her for years, and so has my wife. Our biggest problem was keeping Maggie from eating her poodle.
