The BBC Teen Transsexuals Documentary


Y'all knew that I was going to find that video of the BBC documentary if it was uploaded to the Net and post it here. The first attempt to do so got derailed when the first place I found it on YouTube deleted it, but I quickly found another person who'd uploaded it, and this time I got all six parts of it.

So now, here's the documentary.

    The BBC as part of their Body Image series has also just released Lucy: Britain's Youngest Teen Transsexual

    I'm not entirely sure how to feel about the documentary. I understood the choice made with the pronoun usage but it still bothered me. And the "what if what if what if" of the filmmaker was frustrating. Perhaps she was trying to emulate the "what ifs" of the parents, but it felt like she was treating the stories with an undue amount of skepticism, like she was trying to prove the parents wrong...
