Just want to say that gender does not equal sex…
Sex is the parts that we are born with, while Gender is our identification as masculine or feminine. This has absolutely nothing to do with sexual orientation.

We all know that there are physical differences in men and women; the way their brains function being just one example. Trans individuals have a brain that functions like their desired sex. This leads to an understanding and a valuing of the opposite gender roles.

People dont CHOOSE to just willy nilly change their gender.. That would be the silliest thing they could do. Trans individuals endure so much pain and hardship as well as fear of personal harm that i cant believe anyone would think they would just chose that if there were other options.

Cory began his transition at 9? no… he took hormone blockers to keep from the onset of puberty while he figured out what he wanted. The story stated that he took hormones only a year and a half ago… So he took several years in an androgynous state. Hormone blockers do absolutely ZERO unreversable “damage” and are a great way to buy some time while kids deal with their ideas and issues.

Your vision of self is present LONG before sexual identification… Knowing you are a boy or a girl happens about the same time Cory decided he wanted super man underroos.

As far as the canucks taking on a “Heated Social Issue” I think theyre saying it shouldnt be a “Heated Issue” at all. Let people be who they are and do what they do. You shouldnt be judging that family or how they work through their problems. Im sure you have enough of your own issues to worry about. In general I would encourage you to keep your hate and insecurity to yourself and allow people to love eachother without judging them.

Peace out.

Also for the record, you know that sex and sexuality aren’t actually a choice, right? This shouldn’t be “a heated and controversial subject” by the simple expedient of being irrelevant. If you watch someone play hockey, sell you a television, or take your blood pressure, it doesn’t matter what sex they are.

This isn’t a case of REidentification at all, and it never is: it’s PUBLIC identification. The person involved isn’t changing their identity so much as they are revealing it to others.

For the record, the piece most certainly did advocate the encouraging of gender reidentification towards children. Infact, that was the entire message! I’m not one to get involved in political or social issues but as a life-long Canucks fan I was definitely dissapointed that the orginization took such a strong pro stance on such a heated and controversial subject.

Don’t worry about the anonymous users comments. His or her outdated views simply represent their intolerance to anyone who does not fit a cookie cutter profile that many religious types think is mandatory for whatever warped reasons they have. As long as you are confident in your self and behave respectably towards your fellows, those of us who do not discriminate over things that do not affect us will support you wholeheartedly. Seeing as the majority (if not all) of the LGTBQ do not try to convince “straight” people to swich over, I have nothing but respect for your lifestyle choices. It is people like the anonymous user (though likely having sexual preferences more close to my own) trying to push their beliefs on others that is the real problem with our society.

Well done Schneids and the Canucks for their support and tolerance where it is richly deserved.

Just how much do you know about this issue to be making such ridiculous pronouncements? My guess is nothing. The Canucks have an amazing community outreach program that reaches out to ALL fans, not just the ones that conform to your narrow definition of a hockey fan. Doing a piece featuring a transgendered fan whose idol is Cory Schneider has nothing to do with “encouraging a child to engage in gender reidentification.”

Two Canucks players and Fin, the mascot, also walked in last year’s Vancouver Pride parade to reach out to LGBT fans and their community. By your logic, their goal was to turn other fans gay. MEMO: it’s not possible to turn a heterosexual into a homosexual no matter how much you may fantasize about it.

It is not the Canucks turning this into a political or moral issue, you are.

You are quite welcome, Nicole.🙂

I got very angry reading that anonymous comment. I have parents just like that, which is why it took me until 24 to accept myself, and 25 until I could start transitioning (still waiting on that one though). All my pent-up emotions kind of made me snap.

I agree with every single word you said. I’m glad that there are parents out there like you. You deserve the Mom of the Century Award.

Please give my best to Cory, and tell him he has a big fan in the states!
