Are you satisfied with your gender?

I disagree with the point that sex changes are stupid. There genuinely are people who do not feel they're the right gender, and that doesn't really make them stupid at all. I have a good friend whom I met as Amanda, who is now referred to as Adam and while he's pre-op I don't think it's stupid for him to want to be a full male. Everyone had always thought, when he was playing the part of a she, that she was a male anyway,so it's easier for him now. I'm really happy for him now, because he's becoming who he feels he really is, and he's very brave for coming out to his family about it.

Personally I think people like this are absolutely fascinating, being that I'm so at home in this female body with my decidedly female mind (I'm so girly that I wear nothing but dresses), I can't really understand feeling otherwise, so it's interesting to hear from someone who isn't.
