A bit serious Disclaimer: I am not trying to push my beliefs on others, I just want people to know that GID exists

Hey Everyone,

Today I wasn't going to write a blog post, but I discovered a blog that interested me ( www.raisingmyrainbow.com ) It is a good blog about a mom who has a gender creative son. Now I know most people don't even know this, but Transgendered people aren't just drag queens, and people who had sex changes, as the following are

Thomas Trace Beatie was born Tracy  Lehuanani LaGondino he is an author, activist and inspirational speaker about Transgender rights. he had his gender reassignment surgery in 2002, and chose to become pregnant because his wife Nancy was infertile.

Now, drag queens are men who dress  like girls (In  rather Lady Gaga-esque outfits) because they are transgender and never got to express them selves.

Now, people who are Trans aren't just adults, there is a condition called Gender Identity Disorder there is no way to diagnose it pre-natally. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_identity_disorder_in_children if you want to read more. ) and there are real kids with this disease, being transgendered doesn't mean you are a sick person, it means that you will be who you are if you are a boy and you want to be a girl GO AHEAD! If you are a girl and you want to be a boy that's okay too. The sex assigned at birth to a child isn't always their gender, recently I have discovered  news stories and blogs children who have gender identity disorders, and the subject interests me. Now that doesn't mean I want to be that, you can be interested in murder mysterious and not be a serial killer right? I like Harry Potter that doesn't mean I am a wizard! Its a medical diagnosis and I just needed to get word out because I HATE ignorant people, and there are people who aren't ignorant about somethings and are about others and I think those people shouldn't tell people to stop being ignorant about people who are different, I am a Catholic, I don't listen to the fact that we apparently are against many things, its a religion of love. I believe you should be who ever YOU want to be not what society wants to be, so here are some Transgendered children and their stories.  

This is the beautiful 12 year old Jazz Jennings, you would never know by her appearance, but Jazz is biologically a boy, when she was 1, instead of being interested in her boy toys, she would crawl to play with her sisters plastic shoes and Barbies, they took her to a pediatrician who diagnosed her with Gender Identity Disorder, her parents never forced her to be a boy or a girl, they waited until she was 6 and decided herself she wanted to be a girl, her parents listen to her and if she decides she wants to be a boy, her parents will let her, Jazz is a girl wholeheartedly she is very fashionable and she sews her own mermaid tales. I think Jazz is very inspiring, and many people should watch her story ( Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Wh6NecfMiE ) It is so inspiring and very informative.

This is Jazz living as a boy (Note the plastic shoes)

One other girl that I recently learned about was on Katie Couric

This is Coy Mathis, she is biologically a boy, she has always been allowed to be a girl  in Elementary school, even using the girls bathroom up until December, her and her family are now raising awareness for discrimination of LGBT kids.

I'm done now, I promise the next post won't be as serious, so I shall leave you with this: 

This Blog is LGBT Friendly

Alright, now I'm done. Thanks for reading about a cause I really care about.

Sarah
