What are the steps in Transitioning genders?
Not necessarily in this order
- Start living in your chosen role
- Consult gender specialist - you may need proof of your gender identity
- change bank, social security, driver's permit etc to that of your new gender

- don't spring changes on your workplace or school without discussing it with them first
No, the penis is used in the construction of the vagina.
Define safe. It's not safe to go into redneck city dressed, it's not safe to dress in women's room in Dillards. In general, if it's ok to be gay then it's ok to dress in public.
no, your perspective is wrong, your son likes to crossdress, this does NOT make him a girl, nor gay, this is a fetish, if he is comfortable like this then accept him for what he is, you must have a great relationship already with him as a son, because he is cross dressing in front of you, so he is NOT hiding it, good for him!
Response
The other person above me got everything right, except fot that he may not be an actual crossdresser. He may feel like he's a girl. There is a huge difference-there really is. If he feels that he is a girl, let him be a girl. Transgender is NOT fettish!!! Cross-dressing is a fettish. A cross-dresser still identifies with their gender (as defined by their genitalia), and they cross-dress for sexual gratification.
But either way, let him.
What is used in the process of removing male genitals in a transgender person?
To remove male genitals in a trans-gender operation aka ( sex reassignment surgery). People have this done when they feel they were born the wrong sex and wish to correct it by having their genitals replaced with the opposite sex. The first step is prior to surgery the individual has some kind of hormone therapy. There may be some other plastic surgery such as breast augmentation.

Are you gay if you are mainly atracked to transsexuals?
Transsexual referring to males who have had the operation or want and plan to. I would say that you are and just haven't come to terms with it yet. No matter what is done, no matter how much he may look like a woman, he is still a man without a penis. Why would you seek out a transsexual instead of a real woman if you are attracted to women. You must be attracted to men and don't want to deal with that.
Is trans-gender a good thing or not?
As with many things in this world- the cause and origin is important. One should and must distinguish between an involuntary state of being- such as a physical handicap or something like Albinism, and a chosen and premeditated if perverse act, such as transvestitism. There are, tragically many people who are physically- Inborn, Cross Gender and these are better called Hermaphrodites. Also called Morphadites, (a shortened form, like Plane or phone) AC-DC, and some other terms. Usually one gender will predominate- but there may be certain omissions- again by nature, not man-made surgery. One type has basically female features but some mixed gender apparatus below decks, and frequently small breasts, flat on top. They usually wear pants as they don"t feel comfortable in traditional female costume. That"s one type. A relative of mine who was a nurse said she only ran into one Hermaphrodite in her whole career, and the poor lady had psychological problems to boot. It is a freak of nature.

It is a term to describe people not sure if they are male or female (on the inside, not physically).
You often don't become anything 'gender' - whatever gender you have is built in. You can learn or realize that you are transgender but becoming has nothing to do with it. It's like having brown eyes or being right-handed; an innate part of who you are. However, if you see at least some forms of transgenderism as a choice, then you can choose it. That said, most are born with their gender feelings and leanings.
So you don't, at least not typically, and not in a direct manner. You don't jump up one morning going "Hey, I want to despised and hated by people everywhere, I like the idea of being a pariah just because I see myself differently than other people do, give me more of that!." It's like having blue eyes or speaking your native language or humans walking upright on 2 legs instead of on 4s: it just is. You can choose to act upon it, or you can choose to study your own feelings but you can't choose to be transgendered. You is or you ain't.
Answer
Most people, if you ask them "are you a boy or a girl?", have 0 hesitation, they don't have to think about it, they don't even have to look down - they know it in their heart or head and instantly "I'm a ______."
A transgender person may be a person who believes their sex and/or gender are a blend (on a scale) and not the binary we are all taught is 'the truth." They may also be transsexual, a person who's brain says "I'm a ____" but their physiological sex is the opposite. Then there are those that feel they are both sexes/genders - depending on the time and situation, these are often crossdressers (aka transvestites.) There is a small population that get off on being dressed as the opposite sex - generally these are called fetishists by the CDs and TGs; they may or may not be, but trying to explain to your wife that it's not about sex, when for these few it is, is quite confusing.
Answer
If you have to stop for even a second to think about the question "are you a boy or a girl?" it's likely you are transgender. Take time to study yourself and get in contact with others who are like you, maybe even go to a therapist to help you deal with society's problems with transgenderism (you don't have a problem, society does); if you don't hesitate, be glad you don't have to fight society to be you - you aren't TG.
Answer:
Not really. you cannot become one, it's more like something you either ARE, or you are not, however, it is possible to have very intense transgender feelings, desires and not take action on them.
Answer
From what I understand it is possible to be transgender or have transsexualism and not realize it. Usually these people will know their whole lives that something is not exactly right and just not know what it is that isn't right. It also appears that some people have no question about not being transgender before they hit puberty and suddenly during puberty everything seems to go wrong and they then begin to feel, and continue to feel, that something is wrong or went wrong and now continues to be.
Answer
Pearson Press has a book, called "Introduction to Psychology, Third Custom Edition" (revised 2009), which addresses sexuality, heredity, and biology, to an extent. According to that particular book, the writers believe the consensus that individuals are born with a predisposition to gender and sexuality. Two main theories are proposed: one is that it's genetic in nature, and the other is that it's neurobiological in nature.
However, the same book indicates that heredity does not necessitate any particular choice or compulsion; and, over time, thanks to a phenomenon called "neuroplasticity", the brain will change, based on what we learn, to accommodate that information.
Several other sexual and gender-based identity theories are proposed; such as the theory of a social schema that teaches us which gender we better fit, and a certain psychosexual form of development by which we learn, at a certain age, that we are permanently either one gender, or the other. In other words, we may unconsciously accept that certain factual indications about ourselves actually mean that we are more, or less, like one gender or the other.
While the consensus is that reassignment therapies can fail, and can cause worse trauma, it would only be fair to note that certain therapies are the only ones that have been studied. Furthermore, no greater experimentation or research has been done on other alternative therapies.
Finally, WorldNetDaily has an archived article, regarding a British man who thought he was a male-to-female transsexual, and realized that he was simply sexually confused and needed counseling. While that may not be the case for every transsexual, gay person, or bisexual individual, one could argue that it could provide valuable information for further study, which may help people who feel a compulsion to these tendencies, to find a way to make a transition to "normalcy" easier to accept and become accustomed to.
Now, a person is born with transsexualism, when they actually have that condition. However, anyone can choose to be transition (with or without surgery) - just crossdress on an on-going basis and change your name. Transsexuals persons tend to hate their original genitals, want them gone, and want to blend in entirely as a full member of the corrected sex.

No. Transgender is neither a disease nor a physical condition. There is a diagnosis that might be applied called "Gender Identity Disorder" or GID. Generally those with GID are persons awaiting Gender Reassignment Surgery. Neither is being transgendered a sin or even "wrong"; a person's self-perception (including sexual/gender identity) is never what we see, it is deeper than flesh and bone.
What is the English of shemale?
