did they get nhs funding for surgery also how did their parents react

I think so yes, the hormones and things have the same prescription charge as most other drugs I think. Parents are completely fine with it, siblings fine with it. Some old friends are being a bit rubbish about it though

No, don't think so.

In my country, Viet Nam, there is a transgender person who is in top 4 of Vietnam Idol (season 4).
She was used to be a man, she had a gender reassignment surgery. When she in Vietnam Idol, she is a girl.
Now she has a boyfriend who loves her so much.

Considering they are less than 0.5 % of the general population, I think they punch well above their weight in the "Let's discuss my problems" sweepstakes.
Go on any forum and pretty soon there will be a thread running on them. If they were a celeb they would have the best agent in the world.
There are 20x as many disabled people yet they get a fraction of the collum inches.
Gotta take my hat off to them.

Yes a girl in my secondary school. Everyone just assumed she was tomboyish. After a year of leaving school, she changed.

If you gotta dick, you a man. If you gotta vagina, you a woman.
No such thing as 'transgender'

Not really but there's this girl who transitioned into a guy who's now in 6th form. Originally the school gave her access to the staff and disabled toilets because she was still a girl in their guys. Then she threw a hissy fit so they let her use the boys toilets. A week ago i had finished an enjoyable piss and when i looked up in the mirror while washing my hands lo and behold i see bright yellow hair belonging to an gremlin with several facial piercings.

Actually, there's a girl in my college who is in the early transitioning stage. She is due to undergo surgery within 3 years.

I don't think so,no

So people who've had full SR surgery to give them dicks or vaginas aren't transgender? Also, why make that the dividing line? You could get such surgery without any other form of transitioning, while on the other hand some transwomen who haven't yet had full vaginal construction surgery otherwise look very stereotypically feminine.
