Forced sterilization of transgender person in Sweden

[This Year's Girl]

Ahh, you changed your avatar! But it still suits you so it's all good 😉

I did. 🙂 Some people mixed up me and [MENTION=11764]Carina[/MENTION], and since I've had giggeling Buffy for quite a while I thought It'd be nice to let her belong only to C. 🙂 Also, I love happy Faith! She's so... happy 😀

I signed the petition...that is so sick. I've always found it pretty disrespectful when people refer to a woman, who was born biologically male or vise versa, as a man. Or a he/she...just think of them as the sex that they declare themselves. It's like if I was born in a guy's body, but I just knew I wasn't supposed to be a guy...I can't imagine how frustrating and horrible that would be. And if I did decide that I wanted to live my life as a woman, I would get pretty pissed if people kept calling me "Sir" all the time!

People are so insanely ridiculous when it comes to anything deemed "abnormal". Seriously, what is the point of not allowing them to have children? This really ticks me off. I'll spread the word.

Thank you for your support and for spreading the word! :heart: I agree, it makes me really sad that people who really want children are not allowed by the state to have them. And like it wasn't stressful enough to feel like you're born in the wrong skin. To also have to indure the pain of people calling you something that you're not.

In the end I believe that gender shouldn't matter, but that doesn't mean that it's a very real and horrible experience to not be taken for what you are and not feel comfortable in your own body. I really hope this law changes!
