  • 'As soon as we let him put on a dress his personality changed to a very happy little girl thrilled to be alive'

A boy who started the process of changing sex at age eight has told how he always knew he was meant to be a girl.

Thomas Lobel, who now calls himself Tammy, is undergoing controversial hormone blocking treatment in Berkeley, California to stop him going through puberty as a boy.

His two lesbian mothers, who adopted him aged two, say that they have been criticised by friends and family, but insist they have not forced their son to become a girl.

They say that one of the first things he told them when he learnt sign language aged three, learned because of a speech impediment, was, 'I am a girl'.

Tammy, now 11, wears dresses and effectively lives as a girl.

His parents, Pauline Moreno and Debra Lobel, say that their son, who they claim was depressed at a younger age and threatened to chop of his own penis, is now much happier.

The couple were married in 1990 by a rabbi, according to Pauline's Facebook page, and have two older sons and grandchildren.

Unlike his older brothers who are both described at outgoing and athletic, Thomas liked to read Wonder Woman comic books and play with dolls.

He shunned baseball hats, preferring rhinestone hair accessories.

At age seven, after threatening genital mutilation on himself, therapists and psychiatrists diagnosed Tammy with gender identity disorder.

A year later his parents allowed him to start the first step of his transition to becoming female by letting him pick his own clothes and wear bras.

'As soon as we let him put on a dress, his personality changed from a very sad kid who sat still, didn't do much of anything to a very happy little girl who was thrilled to be alive,' one mother Pauline told CNN.

This summer, Tammy started taking hormone-blocking drugs, which will stop him from experiencing puberty.

The hormone-suppressant will postpone the 11-year-old developing broad shoulders, deep voice and facial hair.The diagnosis has been hard to accept for Tammy's parents, but they insist their sexuality has nothing to do with it.

As Pauline said, people think 'we're pushing her to do this. I'm a lesbian. My partner is a lesbian. That suddenly falls into the fold: "Oh, you want her to be part of the lifestyle you guys live".'

But they insist that is not the case and the decision has been difficult.

His parents say the hormone treatment will give him time to figure out if he wants to fully transition to being female or go through puberty as a boy.

 

If he chooses to stop taking the drugs, he will undergo natural male puberty at a later stage and his future fertility would not be impacted.

Should he decide to transition to an adult female, he can take female hormones as well, which would raise his voice, grow breasts and develop other feminine physical characteristics.

San Francisco, right by Berkeley, is one of four cities in the United States with a hospital that has a program for transgender children.

The University of California San Francisco is home to the Center of Excellence for Transgender Health.

Children are seen at length by mental health professionals and then treated by pediatric endocrinologists.

Others cities with youth programs are Boston, Seattle and Los Angeles.

Here is Tammy with her mothers

Two moms. No he doesn't have two moms. You can only have one mom. By the way that isn't a picture of a family. It is a picture of two sex perverts destroying a little boy. Gee I wish Jerry Brown would have them executed for crimes against this innocent little boy.

Tell me, what should he do about Cher? After all, Chaz was her daughter originally. Should she be executed, too?

Are you in favor of governors executing people just because they feel like it, like Stone is?

"Tea Baggers in general appear to love and admire despots."

There is no excuse ever to dictate culture with the barrel of a gun, or the sting of an executioner's needle.

I notice the self appointed definer of culture doesn't like studies that show conclusively that the brain defines gender and that some people need to define their own gender roles dispite what is expected from them because of their body's manifestation of gender.

I notice is sexist nature comes through when he talks about the transformation physically from male to female is a process of "stunting someone's growth." Since when is being female inferior to a male? That's news to me, that one 'is stunted if they are female.'

The gender this girl should manifest is the one that feels right to her. And she is lucky to have two caring parents to take care of her and help her get the medical care she needs for transformation.

People who transition blend very well into into general culture as the function better as they are far happier and satified with life then they would have been had they had to repress who they were just to keep people like Stone from having his head explode.

I have no sympathy for depotic thinking either. And anyone that does not accept that homosexual and transgender people are very normal, productive and decent people it is their problem to work out.

They are foolish to bother others about what afficts them in their minds and hearts. The snake oil of hatred and intolerence is not as a popular tonic as some might like to believe. Which give me some hope for the future.

I believe he is talking about the various hormone replacements required, most of which have known cancer causing abilities.

I'm sure Stone is not so judgemental about people who do far more dangerous things like smoke tobacco or do a simular trade off of some risk for a more satifying life.

Some transgender people cannot transition with surgery or hormones yet function better just assuming the more comfortable gender role for them.

There is no need to get hung up on the meds. Theu are only prescribed with periotic examinations and blood work anyway, So thismakes the risk far smaller then it is if someone self medicated with purchases over the Internet. And all the surgeries require help with adjustments into the preferred gender role. The protocols and safeguards to make sure that only people with what the DMS IV called 'Gender Dysphoria' transition as well established and functions well.

Anyone can change their name legally to better match their gender identification in any state and change the gender marker on the driver's licenses and other ID in most states along with doing that.

Once someone settles into being who they identify as, they should be left alone and have their rights and social status protected.

What are you trying to say here Mike? Are you coming out of the closet or something? That's what it sounds like.
