As a youngster although he had dolls and other traditionally girls’ toys, he always favoured lego, hotwheels, Power Rangers, football and go-carting.

When he was around 13 he came out to his mum and dad as lesbian. But four years later he realised he wasn’t, he was a boy trapped in a girl’s body.

Jacob, from Rutherglen, near Glasgow, said: “It was something an ex-girlfriend’s dad said to me which made me think ‘wait a minute’. That’s when it all made sense.

“He said something like ‘if she wants to date girls why doesn’t she just become a guy’.

“I started Googling transsexuals and found a YouTuber called Jamie. Everything he explained made sense to me.

"He was into football, so was I. He wanted to be more masculine, so did I. He fought with people when he had to wear dresses, so did I.”

I liked football, being masculine and kicked off big time if I had to wear a dress. Doesn’t make me a guy though, it just makes me a woman who likes football, has a more masculine presentation and hates wearing dresses. It’s so much easier than chopping off healthy body parts, taking hormones my body isn’t built to handle and potentially having myself butchered to create a blow up flesh tube located on the front of my groin.

And when the transition changes nothing?????

So much hope pinned on something. Whatever happened.to realistic expectations

And when the transition changes nothing?

They can blame a transphobic and hostile society?

That's so sad. So many youngsters having to deal with this.

Shocking. Grotesque.

OldCrone · 07/11/2019 16:38

He said something like ‘if she wants to date girls why doesn’t she just become a guy’.

So this person decided to transition following a homophobic comment by a friend's father. And does this man really think that people can change sex?

CuriousaboutSamphire · 07/11/2019 17:00

Presumably Mr Neanderthal said the same to his daughter too! Is she also transitioning?

BeMoreMagdalen · 07/11/2019 17:18

Oh yes, youtuber Jamie, who did a woefully inadequate response to Magdalen where Jamie did lots of eye rolling and sighing and straw manning. Jamie is fond of the exasperated eyeroll and scoff sound method of convincing argument. Nice yellow chair, though.

if she wants to date girls why doesn’t she just become a guy.

Sad

Because she can't.

Have you seen the video of Jamie and Jamie’s brother?

It’s dead weird. Like, Jamie definitely wants to grow up to be the brother...

This recent video on LGB Alliance would be funny if it wasn’t real ‘yes, people can advocate for LGB rights without T rights but only if they include gay trans people’ ie, people who have opposite sex partners.

🤦‍♀️

Really, so taking life advice from a homophobic fuckwit?

Thats not gonna go well

Quite, Rufus. I am astonished that them as fancy themselves progressive can read someone saying their journey of enlightenment was initiated by a bigot telling them that it was only really ok for men to be attracted to women, not women. And lo, they realized the truth of that. WTF.

I think my favourite thing about Jamie, btw, is the way Jamie reads out sensible statements in an incredulous tone, as though that somehow proves they are wrong. Fox and Owl do the same.
