Step back and realize that that is never your decision to enforce on another person.

If someone is interested in transitioning among genders or sexes, then you respect them.

If you are uncomfortable by this, then recognize that sex & gender are distinct from each other and both are very complex. The reason people experience gender or sex in any particular manner is very complex and it is beyond unlikely that any simplistic analysis will definitely answer this question.

Ultimately it is a conversation between the person who is interested in the process and whomever they choose to share it with. No one beyond this group is capable of evaluating the situation simply because it is not theirs to evaluate.

If you are not in this conversation, then the only thing available to you is your own reaction - not the reaction their church, family, school, or friends tell you to have. However, your reaction should never impede or shame another person's choices because it is not yours to influence.

If you are interested in transitioning among genders or sexes, then you respect yourself.

There are resources such as books and organizations and websites and experts, all available to cultivate your awareness as venues for conversation. This can occur through contact or anonymously, directly or passively, online, over the phone, or in person.

To start, there is some excellent information available at the website in the link below. Particularly, consider the section, "What is involved in the transition process?"
