The sad case of a Transgender

I felt so sad when I read this blog from a transgender who lives in Singapore... She writes about her story from a boy to a full female now... It's unfortunate that peope born are suffering from Gender identity disorder... It means people who are born, discontented with the biological sex they were born with... They believe that they are born in the wrong gender body... Just imagine youself thinks like a gal and acts like a gal but to find yourself in a guy's body... Or for those who are guys, imagine you are born in a gal's body... Therefore, they do transexual operations to become a gal ( for guys) to be who they really are...

I remember seeing a couple of them along orchard road during church camp days at Orchard hotel... They were obviously man dress in female clothings and we thought they were weird... After reading the blog, i felt so ashame of myself... I always thought they choose this path and did not know that they are born with it and had no choice...

And people in the soceity who do not know discriminate them and some parents even disown their own child because they felt that it is embarrassing... Therefore, some transgender suffered in serious depression and committed suicide... That was so saddening to see even their own parents disown them...

I remembered when i was still with my ex boyfriend ( Ok, i know I am not suppose to mention him again but I am just giving a real life example) and we discuss about what if in the future we got married and had a son and he becomes an "ah gua" (transgender)will we still accept him... I remembered him saying he would kick him out of the house and disown him as a son which he thinks he got no face to face his friends... =(

No wonder so many of them would commit suicide...

You folks may wanna read the story of this girl @

I think she haven finish her story...

Oh yes, and what do church thinks about transgenders? I did a google search on the internet and realise there are still churches that thinks that it is wrong... Hmmm well... However, there are some who felt that it's ok.. i personally felt that it is ok... What are your thoughts?
