Just watched that transsexual episode of CSI, it was really good. They did well to correct whomever tried to call her a "he."

Also, I'm really freaking glad I quit this thread.

Only when you were on, you were the one constantly spouting s**t about me because you were jealous. Go ******** yourself.
I hate that episode.

You didn't quit this thread considering you watch it like a hawk.

BAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW. No, you and Poe had big douchebaggary drama when I was on leave that made you leave in the first place. I was obviously referring to stuff that happened when I wasn't here when I said this. You all blame me, use me as the scapegoat, say it only happens when I'm on, when you know that stupid s**t is far from the truth. It only works because you've all figured out that if you band together and say it's only me then you can shove the blame off yourselves. Honestly, I don't give a s**t that you blame me for your poor behavior but I will point out the flaws in logic.

I am not jealous of a freaky FtM crossdresser who looks like a girl and has v****a sex and then throws a tantrum when someone calls him "she" because he's wearing fishnet gloves and a pink tank top.

The drama has become self-sufficient! Noo!
     
Become? More like always has been. People need to stop blinding themselves with pointless drivel. Every transgender online community I've seen, even lurked in and didn't participate in so I could observe the "system" without placing myself in it, has an incredible amount of drama.

It would help if you were more parsimonious about it.

Anyway, trans issues. GID diagnosis is very easy to get "if you have GID". What if you don't? Is it easy to fake? All you have to do is tell your psych that you have these cross-gender feelings and that you have dysphoria, right?

@ Femtoo: What the ******** do you know about what I'm "in it" for? Regardless, I don't give a s**t what you think, especially since you don't know the first thing about me.

And if you're talking about my transition, you can think whatever you want. I was showered with a lot of unwanted attention "as a female". I am now INVISIBLE as a male. And I like it that way.
It's obvious that you're a mule and a quick look at your post history reveals exactly who you really are.

Oops.

lolno.
Lolyes. You are obviously a mule. Otherwise you wouldn't have come into this thread just to tell me I'm in it for the attention. Otherwise you wouldn't have logged in specifically for the purpose to post here and say that. It would not have been your initial choice of joining a discussion unless you are a regular who decided to anonymously troll me.

Oh pleaaaaase. You need to stop ego masturbating. You're not important. Noone cares.

If you don't have GID, it is incredibly hard to fake. But if you have a stupid or lazy therapist they might make a false diagnosis or assume you're being truthful. My therapist was actually extraordinarily through in his evaluation of my condition.

Generally if you just "tell them" you have these feelings they're SUPPOSED to ask you a series of investigative questions, take notes, and check for consistency. In some instances they will ask family members and friends (for instance if you claimed to have been cross dressing for 3 years) to verify information. This was not really done in my case primarily because I told him straight up that I had not done anything "externally obvious" aside from being a tomboy and cross dressing for a year prior which I could prove with timestamped photographic evidence (he didn't ask for it though because according to his analysis of all the information I have him this was an unimportant detail).

Thing is, a lot of people do slip through the cracks. Some of them live in delusion and never actually experience reverse-dysphoria (dysphoria after transition). There is no explanation as to why this really is. I theorize (obvious this is a "personal hypothesis") that it has to do with the fact that despite not reaching a clinical threshold for actually having GID, these patients still want to live the fantasy of being the opposite sex. Essentially doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. It could be dangerous but if it isn't, who cares? In the cases of delusional patients living a fantasy, they tend to have a long list of other issues that makes life difficult for them.

Overall, it completely depends on the doctor. If the process of diagnosis is done correctly, it is incredibly hard to slip through the cracks and be misdiagnosed.

That's why you all try so hard to make me look unimportant. biggrin You know, because if I'm so unimportant, no one would figure that out themselves. You have to let everyone know how unimportant I am by giving me generous amounts of publicity.
 
     
Am I a man or a woman?
Yes, I am definitely one of those.
Depending on who's talking.
