I wonder had the guy’s wife just let him lay about in her lingerie, that it would have become such an issue now.

I’m a woman and I can’t imagine it either.

Suck it up and go to the grave as a father and a man.

1) A man cannot "become a woman".

2) How much do you hate your wife and children?

"Why can’t he be satisfied wearing womens panties like the rest of us."

"Oops, did I say that out loud"?

You're funny, vwbug!

If he was born a male, there is no way that he can become a woman. He can cut and whack,and nip and tuck to his heart’s content, but at the end of the day he is still a male.

“I believed I would find happiness only once I was true to myself. “

Hey, I know! How about being true to your wife and children?

Selfish dope.

My God...he wants to be told its okay to destroy his family by mutilating his body to match his psychosis. YOU ARE MENTALLY ILL if you think you are something you, genetically, are not...a duck, a chicken, Lincoln, Marie Antoinette, anything. Now we’re making the mental illness real instead of curing it? He will FOREVER be male, but he won’t have family if he does this, and rightly so.

“For the life of me (as a man), I can’t imagine what would cause a man to look down at his Johnson and think: “That’s really gotta go.””


You can’t? Well, there are plenty of ‘causes’ for this. How about for raping? (in all it’s forms), pedophilia?, bestiality?, molestation?, irresponsible seed-spilling?....I mean....the list could get quite extensive. Everyone knows that life here, on earth, has been spent in idolatry of the penis. Let’s not kid ourselves.

We have lost the concept of self-sacrifice. It’s why divorce rates are so high — nobody thinks they should stay together “for the children” anymore. And in fact they’ve made an industry out of self-aggrandizing proclamations that the children are actually better off if the parents don’t “live the lie”.

But love and acceptance isn’t something that just happens, it is a choice of will. Nobody wants to make choices of will anymore, and we are discouraged from it. “Be true to yourself”. I guess if yourself is a lying cheating pedophile mass murderer, maybe we don’t want you to be “true to yourself”.

The liberals love this. They know that the result of people being “true to themselves” is that they will shirk all responsibility, leaving it up to the government to care for everybody.

You can't become a woman, at best you can become a eunuch.

I would suggest you find someone who actually treats gender identity issues rather then someone who plays along with your problem.

Find out why being a "guy" makes you unhappy. Bad relationship with your dad or your mom is usually the cause but it could be something else.

And for the love of mike don't make your wife or kids upset about the matter. This is your problem. Why do you want to make it theirs?

The time has come to "man up". And forget about the "happy" bit. I have yet to meet anyone who is happy all the time. Being unhappy is part of life. Deal with it.

How sad :(

Somehow our culture has reached a point where one’s “sexuality” is the most important characteristic. Instead of looking at this with reason, what will be the most beneficial to all involved, people are encouraged to be selfish. Modern psychiatry tells them to embrace any and all ideas of sexual identity.

I find it difficult to understand how somebody could be an unselfish, loving, father but then make such a selfish decision. What does somebody *gain* by this? Unreal.
