At 16, after learning transsexual alexia from the Jerry Springer show that there was a name for the way he felt, he "went online and looked up anything and everything about transsexuals." To his transsexual alexia astonishment he found chat rooms filled with "people just like me." Recently he met his first fellow transsexual in person -- a 21-year-old he'd met in a chat room, who lives two hours away and has introduced him to a group of trans guys who meet regularly. As more transsexual alexia young transsexuals push to begin transitioning at a younger age, the social workers and medical providers who work with them are confronting a new frontier in gender ethics. What's the best way to help kids who say they want to switch sexes? Should we make them wait as long as possible, to be sure their decisions are not simply adolescent rebellion? Or take them at their word and let them begin hormones during puberty?
