What would your reaction be if your son came out as a transgender?

It wouldn't happen, as that sort of thing only happens when it is fostered by the environment the child is raised in- i.e. always told females are superior, males are stupid/dumb, viewing stuff like that in the media.

I'd just get him eating steak and lifting weights to boost his test levels and grow out of the phase.

e. always told females are superior,

Aw the SJW baby is triggered again, so cute
Why don't to tell your pampering parents to give you a hug
Maybe they never told you that different people have different views on issues like LGBT and that people aren't far right bigoted nazis just because they disagree slightly with you on an issue.

I would whoop his ass until i beat the trans **** out of him if that dosn't work then he officially aint my son anymore. simple

That's horrible.
Some people shouldn't be parents.

Congratulate them, and send he/she on holiday, to a siberian gulag

Hey couldn't agree more with the points you've made, thanks for writing this! I had no idea the strife the trans community go through with the NHS, and I'm sorry to hear your transition has been so rough.

On the point of suicide rates and proof they remain as high post-op, I cannot find any evidence on it, and indeed, am only finding evidence to the contrary. Namely depression (and as a result, suicide) rates going down drastically post-op. Gotta thank the reddit elves for collating these studies https://www.reddit.com/r/TiADiscussion/comments/2yltjj/does_transitioning_reduce_the_risk_of_suicide_in/

I do hope you're not being serious. It is really worrying me how many of you are being so negative about this! I'd have really thought in 2016 that our generation would have grown out of the narrow minded generation of our grandparents era. I think it's perfectly normal, live and let live! If people feel that way, then let them get on with it! I am 100% gay and ****ing proud and I understand how the LGBT community feel, because I've actually been through it myself. I find it funny how most of you will not be part of this community and you're all quick to judge saying it's something we can snap out of or grow out of or it's a choice. IT ****ING ISN'T! Me, my gay friend, my transgender friend, we were all born this way and we know that we have known from a young age. My transgender friend who naturally never wanted to play with Barbie but wanted Action Men, at an age when they didn't even know this sort of stuff was on TV, just proves that it is a completely natural thing! Oh my why can people not get their head around it, it's so simple!!!

Looks like someone's triggered loooool

Maybe it's making you angry because you know it's the truth. That's my take, anyway.

Who says girls should play with Barbie, and can't play with Action Men? What kind of backwards view is that? Just because a girl enjoys sensible things does not make her a boy.
