Against Me! singer Tom Gabel reveals plans to begin living as a woman in the new issue of Rolling Stone. Gabel, who has dealt privately with gender dysphoria for years, will soon begin the process of transition, by taking hormones and undergoing electrolysis treatments.

Is possible to live as a woman when you are still a man?
- gender is a social construct.ohhhhhsnap
- More like a biological constructqoob

so when the transformation is yet completed, to which restroom does he/she go to? and if he/she goes into the ladies' room does he/she still piss standing up? i wonder when they start to lose that habit?
- *is not yet completeddijitaq
- one can sit down to pee regardless of gender.bulletfactory
- Well he can try and use the ladies room but I doubt they will like it very much.CygnusZero4

No wonder he became a chick if his band sounds like that...
But on a real note, a friend of mine's parents split a few years ago, then his dad (who is like in at least in his 50s) decided he was going to become a woman. Pretty intense shit for him and his 2 brothers to deal with...
- "WTF DAD!! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO RUIN MY LIFE! ;( IM NOT GONNA HAVE ANY FRIEND NOW!"pango
- anything like that happened?pango
- He must've been amazing at hiding it for that long, or everyone else didn't pay attentionJaline
- maybe your friends mom likes girls too...coolzoozoo
- he was pretty good at hiding itfresnobob

I assume his voice will change with the transition.
- It doesnt. I met a trans person in NYC years ago. Some can fake it well but the juice they take doesnt change it.CygnusZero4

Lyrics from the chorus of the video posted in Original Post ....
"No mother ever dreams that her daughter's going to grow up to be a junkie."
are they going to do a re-make ....
"No mother ever dreams that her son's going to grow up to be her daughter."

Amazing, I have never thought...

Well he is sure in for a rough life but good for him if it makes him happy. People can do whatever they want within the law. Fact is though so few of them are actually passable for real women and there's always going to be a shit load of people out there that want to torment them. Hope he is ready for that.
- I think if I had the same issue as him I would be very paranoid about going out at night alone.CygnusZero4

Maybe (s)he will still fuck girls and (s)he will be a transgendered lesbian.
- so fucking stupid.ohhhhhsnap
- if she fucks girls she's a lesbian. no such thing as "transgendered"ohhhhhsnap

CygnusZero4 - "People can do whatever they want within the law."
Really, people should be able to do whatever they want within OR OUTWITH the law as long as it does not negatively effect or harm others either directly or indirectly.
- Yeah, that's what I said. People should not hate on those that are different from them, but they do anyway.CygnusZero4
