2 days ago, my 18 year old daughter told me that she is actually a man. They have paid for an online assessment of gender dysphoria which is taking place today, and apparently an officially accepted document of diagnosis.
I am surprised because she has more interest in traditionally female things than I do! I gave her opportunities to try traditionally male things like football as a child but she cried when someone kicked a ball at her! She loved ballet and floaty dresses and make up!
More recently, she had a 2 year sexual relationship with a very heterosexual boy when in 6th form and had to have a coil fitted after a pregnancy scare!
Now, suddenly, she's a man and it's not a fad because she is paying big money to make it happen. She's looking into private top surgery and applying for jobs so she can pay for it!
Has this happened to anyone else? I thought that trans people usually show how different they are from their assigned at birth gender...it's obvious, surely?
