From Chastity to Chaz: Cher's Gender-Swap Son Steps Out With His New 'Girlfriend' [Pics in URL]

By PAUL REVOIR 19th April 2010

In the legal sense, he's not yet a man. But Chaz Bono is already enjoying some of the nice things about being a chap --such as going out with a pretty girl on your arm. The child of Cher and her late ex-husband Sonny Bono is in the final stages of swapping gender from female to male.

How do they change exactly half of the chromosomes from X to Y?

They can't. They can mutilate her surgically, but she is and will always remain female. Apparently, there are coaches who teach these mutilated people how to better impersonate the opposite gender after they have gone through the physical mutilations--but the behavior will never come naturally to them.

During fetal development, the default developmental pathway is essentially female. The presence of testosterone (from the testes) during that period drives the development of male characteristics, including male brain structures. No amount of surgery can cause those to develop after the fact!

That’s so sad. A pretty little girl turned into a sicko freak.

And forgive me if I don’t quite understand the mechanics of making a “man” out of a “woman”, do they uh,....add something and does it “work”?

“I feel so much more comfortable that I’ve ever been,” Bono told “Good Morning America” in an exclusive interview. “I’ve felt male as far back as I can remember.”

And, to his delight, he’s even begun shaving his face.

“This was a very difficult decision to make, but it was the best decision I’ve ever made,” Bono said, promising more changes to come. “I feel great.”

Now that Bono, who lives in California with Jennifer Elia, his girlfriend of four years, is one of the most recognizable faces of the transgender community, his mother Cher has pledged to stand behind her child.

“Chaz is embarking on a difficult journey, but one that I will support,” Cher said in a statement issued to Us Magazine in June. “I respect the courage it takes to go through this transition in the glare of public scrutiny, and although I may not understand, I will strive to be understanding. The one thing that will never change is my abiding love for my child.”

I actually think Cher’s response was perfect and honest: I don’t understand, but I will try to be understanding. It’s her child. And, really..can you imagine being Cher’s daughter??????

Again, great statement: “I respect the courage it takes to go through this transition in the glare of public scrutiny, and although I may not understand, I will strive to be understanding. The one thing that will never change is my abiding love for my child.”

Someday all those who try to play God are going to find out to their eternal grief that they are most definitely not Him.

Yes, I know what you are saying. If I was in the same situation, I would support my child. However, this is Hollywood and glamor. Where are the Hollywood supporters? They seem to be quite. Wouldn't ya think Hollywood would be hooting and hollering, “Yeah” for Chaz?
