Crube Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml...1/28/wkim28.xml A 12-year-old German boy who insisted he was a girl trapped in a boy's body convinced his parents that something had to be done, so they agreed to allow him to receive a series of hormone injections, making him the youngest sex-change patient in the world, according to published reports Monday. Now 14, the boy, who went by the name Tim, has now become Kim – a blue-eyed blonde with a growing bust line who is allowed to wear make-up at weekends. Kim has no boyfriends at present but her parents say she is interested in what, now, is the opposite sex. Her treatment, which has cost more than $40,000, is being funded by German taxpayers. Psychiatrists treating her say she was an ‘exceptional case – a person clearly in the wrong body’, even though the decision to grant her wishes when she was so young is still the subject of intense debate. Her identity and medical insurance cards have been changed to her new name and sex. Link to comment

Crube Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 isn't this what the "Stupid News Thread" is for? The NFL shutting down a church party because the television is too big is stupid news, this isn't. Link to comment
Galkar Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Seriously, lots of people are confused at 12 years old, that was a seriously drastic decision to make. Also, why was it funded by tax money? Link to comment
margot Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 it's good to get a sex change before puberty when you're a transexual, so you look more convincingly like the other gender. I think she and her family know what's best more than some internet strangers, so good for her. Link to comment
Nega-Brent Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Why is there always a doctor that says "a true case of a person in the wrong body" whenever there is a controversial sex change? Link to comment
darkon Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Why is there always a doctor that says "a true case of a person in the wrong body" whenever there is a controversial sex change? Part of being a doctor is saying the same quote whenever someone second guesses you instead of actually delivering reasonable explanations to the situation. It's really done to cover one's ass, which is understandable. I hope Kim is happy, but at such a young age before the sexual indentity is fully developed I have to question wanting to go ahead with a sex change. Link to comment

Even adult transgenders have to go through a lot of evaluation and therapy to make sure it isn't a phase or something on a whim. I would assume with a child there would be even more discussion and research to make sure it's not just some 5th grade dare. Link to comment

thebornotaku Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 She doesn't have a penis anymore. To quote the last paragraph... "For legal reasons, the final stage – cosmetic surgery to remove the male genitalia – cannot take place until Kim is 18." Link to comment
