    Well I'd be worried for him because its not easy but I'd try and support him and let him know he's loved and wanted.

    hmm we´re supposed to be accepting and open minded nowadays. etc etc.
    But Id be telling him that its ok if he is gay, but he is NOT going to be getting anything chopped off or taking ridiculous hormones or getting vocal cords snipped. If he identifies as a woman, grand, but bodily surgery is a no-no.

    This is hypocritical as my GF has both breast and ass implants...

    Why would you need counselling? It would be the son that's sick...very very sick.

    I'd be delighted. I don't want to have any boys anyway, so I'm sure there may be something in my raising of a boy that would lead to this anyway.

    Yes but those are good things.

    All this sex change would be accomplishing would be to place one more ugly woman in the world.
