Gender dysphoria on Channel 4

[ethelthefrog]

I have just watched Age 8 and wanting a sex change. I know it aired 2 days ago, but I taped it. Anyway, it is nice to see gender dysphoria on the telly in a serious documentary. The problem I had with it, and this is a biggie (it rendered it nearly unwatchable for me), was the fact that the narrator kept referring to everyone by natal pronouns

Oh lord. that annoys me to no end. Then again the trans people I know just don't make sense as their birth gender. Like one male-to-female person I know just never "registered" as male to me.

> I taped it

That's so quaint :-)

Well, I used Sky+, but who's counting? I disced it doesn't really have the same ring...

[blue_donkey]

would be more accurate though.
nice to see you've joined the 20th century. 576i is so last century :-)

Nope. Still on 576i.
