a fee lives near frank foot. the cashier has been living as a woman for several years and has no decided to have sex reassignment surgery. the operation is due to start soon. as often ok, let's be waiting almost exactly 6 months my operation date. and 6 weeks ago i called the letter saying the operation can go ahead. i'm going through with that just to us. no compromises kind of, i'll be seeing it through to the end doors. it's what i want, that's all the 30 year old finally has an appointment for her 1st of 2 operations. until now, she's be making due with hormones, which is the 1st stage of the actual transition for most of those concerned the proximal, moist, crazy what the whole names do. i've been taking them for 4 years now and then lots has changed and there's a point where i don't see it myself anymore. which office do?
5:33 am
they say things like, he's become turkey fan and you look stream the good. it gives me a real boost on you. got it, sir. for the 1st few weeks after the operation, it will be up to 0 fee to make sure that turn huge and the tools retain their ability to function. the necessary stretching needs have already arrived. hope college now it's getting serious cups. really sinking in now? quite most of these i'm looking forward to this appointment. no, i'm looking forward to my vagina. it's good for him to be glad when it's all behind me sent him. yes. for those of fees be managing by herself for years. she certainly doesn't want to spend the days before and after the medical procedure fluid her best friend pascall will be keeping her company on the way to the university hospital. and as of may have happened, it's really important to me that my best friend is coming on because he's being that from the beginning. i don't think i to cope emotionally on my engine. why
5:34 am
specializes? i'd probably k vin and black out. and we would see i'm awesome. and that's the last thing she wants. she'd have to wait months for another appointment to look, i will be 16 in a few months. from a very early age, he felt he was a boy born in a girl's body. as family have receive psychological counseling and they support his transition. in addition to that, i be here for about 8 to come. i didn't go through female puberty because it's i was put on hold on block as soon as it started and that stopped everything. or then after about 3 years i started taking testosterone from the to a very low doses so that i could grow my outbox. it the test of through and won't because body increasingly masculine flashback. we started as a company, the 12 year old on camera back in 2019 luca was being treated by hormones
5:35 am
specialist doctor of us. tough experienced. and why don't you stand over here and we'll see how tall you are. it's an important stage. and lucas journey was the name change. oh, my old id card still says leone, and i'm leaving it here at last. and it will be deleted. 2023. luca is once again on his way to the endocrinologist, doctor, 1st all we specializes in the treatment of children and adolescents and handbook and view of the risky procedures is crucial for adult. traversed off the patients be thoroughly informed. the incidental from the incidence of trans boys has arisen significantly in recent years, quotes and 70 percent of young people who come to us are transported from early childhood. luca was a typical trans boy with typical boys, behavioral patterns,
5:36 am
son, that i'm much more confident with that. and then when somebody suddenly discovers this trans issue during puberty at the age of 12 or 13 and comes to me saying, i saw this youtube video and then everything was clear to me, video goes in. well, that's when the alarm bells go off in my head. i mean the alarm clock that the expert works closely with psychologist psychotherapists to reload snap judgments. good luca and his mom are also accompanied through the process to the phoenix, passive farm. i had lots of doubts, especially when it started with the woman blow, cuz we didn't start with the testosterone, which we gave home and broke us quite early on in front of because the older sister started puberty early on. and that's exactly what i wanted to spend my child out of everything he was expressing. what's your it was just points close. send to machine his name. well dressed as a short have,
5:37 am
i'm going to need to go into the boys toilet to let the i'm so they will face this way. you could see he was guessing happy mclaughlin had in the mid seventies. it was already clear to norah that she wanted to go through life as a woman. but it wasn't too many years later that she fully came out. today her trans identity is an important part of the 69 year olds life. just as i make sure that to speed which these people actually retain important to me relatively late in 2018, 2019 when retirement was approaching and i was planning this new phase of life i to, i wanted to become visible as of trying to pass and fish, fuzzy added being visible domestically, became linked with activism by that. so i mean something up for the interests of trans people because it's even, this is just to educate mainstream society and that's very important to me and it's making my last stage of life feel quite meaningful names of shit. i'm const present
5:38 am
once. and nora was 19 when she moved to west berlin. soon she was working in a night club, the legendary shave whom you have. they are surrounded by other trans people. the young woman is freely express or so that i know we all have tremendous self confidence and as far as mainstream society goes, we didn't see little, well they might've seen is those freaks. but that wasn't all problem because it was that problem with this, right? so all as to, to 12, the pool things, they've no idea the cost for the biggest disadvantage in the seventy's was being excluded from the regular labor market. so it really was the case that trans women mainly left at night stuff. so with various options, sort of cool side of lights have continued in my day job. this stuff has been possible. i was working in the lodge bookshelf at the time, but there was no chance of staying that of a spot for them. i would say toys that supplied 6 years after her transition bureau left the night light behind and no covertly trans started working as
5:39 am
a secretary. she wrote several books as an opera critic. today the act, the themes to dispel pressure, this is about trans people. closer to i think, and most of people are starting from a false premise when they say that trends means living in the wrong body. and i say, i've never had that feeling. i can use it for all the body we have and the solid body. and we can never leave it as a cub. i've never had the feelings that i am a decision being that much something on the contrary, i felt i was given something in addition to my body's gender, different gender identity. so i embody femininity, i'm to masculinity at the same time. i mean, i think that's pure luxury, 400 offices. it's october 2022. so fees on the way to a new body. tomorrow the trends will undergo sex reassignment surgery
5:40 am
firms. i'm supposed to report some way at this time around just a moment here at s and university hospital sex reassignment surgery for trans women has been a routine operation for years. the fees, best friend pascall, who has traveled with her for emotional support is still laurie's fear shit and van lever from. and so she's a very loving person, corporate, and that she's not my big sister to them. we've gone through everything together. joy fear pretty much everything that's himself. and by fear, i think she's my best friend to fees. main concern is to have a body that sexually female or she also hoops the upcoming medical procedure will lead to more acceptance in everyday life. so these display stuff, home and all right, so, so those not the every day instances where yes,
5:41 am
your try me, i'm in the most a woman, you'll never be a woman and to find a bit of makeup plan to make one. of course, as i've heard a tool i think is once i've had surgery, this trends thing is done with the good to me split. that is even if a lot of people will probably still say i'm transgender and confident, that step is definitely doesn't matter to me. the word transgender or trends, one to exist anymore, accepted on the summer in the afternoon to feed, meets her surgeon, professor has do you have any questions before the operation tomorrow, how the i'm really worried about being able to feel the need of either because i can best be on my own. well we've asked our patients about that after the operation . when that is phones with us, the about 96 percent say they had some feeling and the glitter assumption and put them helping dr. can't around 90 percent say they were capable of oregon and i felt i've got the most face and okay,
5:42 am
that's reassuring. there are various theories and why increasing numbers of people are identifying as trends. the doctor has a simple explanation and thoughts funds which on 20 years ago, many people didn't even realize that this existing comp, i myself had little or no contact with it before i came here to the clinic 15 years ago. and so i also had to learn how to deal with the topic of video. i think social acceptance has improved and people are more informants. think about them, that's why there are more people who can find the words or how they feel it. and look as though it's a new school where he has to repeat his high school diploma. so he todd, how was school? good. yes. that okay. and what time look our newest, there's prejudice against trans people. mentioned so enough english in public. i would never say i'm trans. i didn't say openly at school. you just have to be
5:43 am
careful who utah with most people. it's better not to say anything because once you cite, you'll the outside and then your mom, i'm bullet 12 and all that. i was going to on luca already experienced this in 2019. when he came out in his film the you'll have to take test of june for the rest of his life. does not bother him. smile and close to. so can i have asked me to us and i have to take my asthma spray every morning or so, and it's exactly the same, but it's just normal for managed on. so i can't imagine life without it not. and it just upsets. if i stop taking it, everything would reverse in my body and i'd go through female puberty truth and just like a supervisor, it's on. and then you certainly don't want to not do that. no, i don't want that in these for look at the moment is all about his
5:44 am
identity and having the right body body. he's becoming more and more comfortable with my nice in my ice hockey team, some notes and sometimes you know, concerned it's no more commit to shower with the team. just in my underway is not a problem to help. and, and i think it's really great how they show consideration for making this name. ice . hockey is a constant and because light flashed back back in 2019. when luka was 12 company into training there won't be much time for sport over the next few months. luca has to concentrate on school and leaving exams, the doors committed to the rights of trans people. a loss of her self confidence den some her job in the seventy's, the cloakroom attendant at the berlin knight club. she will meet her
5:45 am
at this time, of course there was a sudden and security in the beginning, especially going to work in the evening and coming back home in the morning. at 1st i tried to ignore the looks, but at some point i actually sold out eye contact. i wanted to be looked at, looked at gender reassignment surgery was never an option for the trends with nor i loves her body exactly as it is the finished dollars on to fix been out on the street and it's unlikely any one would think. i know some women open, but when i'm standing naked in front of the mirror, i know mindful these number entering. this is always labeled in congress going as if the comp be female press is with male sexual characteristics. respect. i don't see any contradiction, not the see if others see as well. so that'll be the appropriate and not mine's, especially since the info for the money is. mine's john still feels connected to
5:46 am
the queer community tonight. so to are these days where she enjoys them all, the more of this feeling of being amongst equals try to the i never really played the exotic role with all my different i felt that i needed to live a normal life name. that was always the goal as different as i am. that should always be not turned on mine. so i did the science and i'd like to quit community to be seen to see all the by mainstream society, but rather as a cultures and societies. that's where we belong in a multi faceted persons on lifestyle as normal as any of them. so nobody and i'm really surprised that all the div gender reassignment has come for so fee the night a short is a fee hardly slept a wink. he can do this
5:47 am
so so i'm already terrified, so don't worry, it'll be fine. you'll wake up later and think the final. so you've been called great. therefore he's been wasting more than 6 months for this moment. you'll hear on june. i'm here. now her best friend has to wait 2 hours. that's how long the operation usually takes upfront on friday. i know some, yeah, we were here about 2 or 3 years ago and already made all these preparations, the registration, the procedure waiting list and so on. and now the time has come. now we hear now it's plain view, here, respect to the operation. how will it go? well, everything be intact through dog. well,
5:48 am
that'd be feeling down there. so that's the biggest thing to fees. operation which is fully covered by health insurance proceeds without complications. and the doctors, prognosis is also favorable. the patient has a good chance of filling sex life. we know from the follow up surveys of our patients that there are also holistic changes in that open. and even if only the genitals have been operated on it, obviously a lot happens before surgery. apart from the essential things happen before the coming out, the psychological aspect, and also the hormonal situations. what is it? the surgery is only a small part enough one, but it still gives another boost to the holistic female feeling, i presume for the summer 2023 look at has graduated from high school and has already been accepted for an apprenticeship as
5:49 am
a piano meeker. well done. on your graduation dining if his grandmother remembers his childhood system, it's a funny feeling when you 1st have a go and to do the switch, he has style the praises and so on. but then you just except it's him and that's it . he's a boy, spend the rest on the pos just i'm because uh huh. bye. they might have to some, some of the split up by the basketballs and it wasn't something you gave much thought to just in vic. it was more of a gradual process of development. it's one of my part. i saw him as a very strong person because he always knew who he was. but despite the obstacles in his way, of course the always setbacks where you thought to yourself is a big sister. i'd love to give that person a piece of my mind because it was her full of course. but i notice i felt like to touch on what were the setbacks
5:50 am
among other things pulling at school. the flashbacks lucas group, ultimately, if it be trans and a silver item 4 years ago. gets lost. so it does. how do i to mine from the cook top to a few people? so my film done, and they handled it really well on the edge of them. i know me to kind of, i asked me of course, and i thought i shouldn't deny it or anything to gain just admitted openly. when we talked about it a little, it was a huge release. them could be that it kind of phone to bone at the noon or now i prefer being around people who know about it. and then the ones who don't submitted on the look at has achieved a lot. the issue of sex reassignment surgery is still on the table as being fun hobby's. definitely good to have the option because then you can decide for yourself whether you want it or not satellite kind. of course,
5:51 am
you can't do it to the 18 and i think that's a good sample. your body has to be mature, of course, and it gives you time to think again, i called and i say you don't rush into anything. can you give us that? so that sounds think us many of know most friends identify as clear body and as one of the the younger trends mind comes with different generation to know that they are both familiar with the problems based by trans people he's crime against minorities has been on the rise for years to set images of the test, it starts on line and social media. then the verbal harassment spills out on to the streets to spend the tons volume and physically volume and speaking of and trans people are a prime targets from the coffee being visible and taking a stand, a balancing act for many of those affect it because like everyone else they also
5:52 am
need privacy anonymity. let me go to office cuz there's times when people don't believe that i'm trends and i can be covertly and anonymously trans anywhere if i want to. but i also think it's important to take a scan now and then and say, i'm trends by the way, meaningful and as long as people are still being beaten off out that it's important to draw attention to ent, profile, fax and some friends are concerned about current political discussions, which poetry trends, people as choosing their gender and when and then manipulating children you all feeling an interesting education in schools is of course super important because otherwise trans children will be bullied and marginalized. when parents come and say, don't drive on children. crazy. yeah, the children can be made crazy. sometimes discussions on needed, assigning,
5:53 am
and the parents probably don't want to look at it and, and that, so they say leave on children alone, life money. and i mean, if a child is unsure about themselves, then you should discuss it when they come to flash. okay, let the van as a ton, we soon become trans by invitations listed on this. this idea that of trans people are constantly being talked about and reported on, always presence in the media. that could be this copy types of things or would you does become trends by reading or watching some thing online. that's just not the reality for an excuse anything. it's the, it's got me and i never struggled with being trans. not for a moment. on the contrary, discovering my translate, density is the best thing that could have happened to me. i truly, i'm an absolutely happy trans posts and something might sound stupid, but it's true a, it's a so almost a year after her sex reassignment fee is on her way to her hairdresser to get here
5:54 am
extensions. there's news. the 31 year old is in love for new partner, doesn't know that so fee is trans asking for that. he's such a frank foot, boy, it's all football clubs united. and if it's never been part of your wells and you know nothing about it, really we have very different play. so i'm going to keep it to my little see creative guidelines as a sub hauled. i don't know what i do not, or the me, the lots of people say i should tell him. then i'll just say, don't tell him what if it came out some other way. the establishment i've thought about that, my number or to job. then he'd probably ask, why didn't you tell me your thoughts, wrestle, except as some of them i did bring it up in directly, and the values are state. and i said, you might imagine you met someone like that who was a man before some of the hard, so i mean, these days anything goes, nothing's up norman anymore, norma,
5:55 am
i'm not sectional going on. i'm happy for you. enjoy it. you never know what's going to happen these days a minute. well, if he signs out and that's how it is. but then if he rejects me, i'll know for sure. it was, it was a big line for trends. people like sophie, there's no one right way. there are lots of different options on the memberships. if someone asked me now and said, i'm sure what, what do you do? my tape would be, listen to you in the south that look inside yourself to see what you really want. okay? so that i could just say do it, but then you might end up on happy because it really is a major intervention. so, so it's also very painful and they'll come go wrong. yeah, because much math. so subordinate, i didn't regret a single thank you skin nothing. it tool kind of service, you know, got to the
