Transsexuales

Hallo,
Ich wohne seit 20 jahren in Norwegen und habe die gesamte behandlung hier durchgeführt (mtf), bin seit 4 jahren auf HRT und post-op. Den namen der in meinen pass steht benutzt keiner, und auf der arbeit und meisten freunde kennen ihn auch garnicht.
Habe vor ein par tagen eine antwort von gericht Schöneberg auf einen antrag zur namensänderung und personenstandänderung bekommen. Da stand das gutachten und ein "transsexualler lebenslauf" fehlen. Ich hatte von meinen arzt und den krankenhaus jeweils einen attest und eine liste mit welche schritte wann begonnen wurden, dies war aber anschienend nicht ausreichend genug. Habe nochmal mit den krankenhaus gesprochen doch die haben problemstellung überhaupt nicht verstanden und meinten der attest sei ausreichend. Sind gutachten überhaupt nötig?
Und weiß nicht zu genau was die mit gutachten und diesen lebenslauf überhaupt meinen, und bei anfrage im gericht per telefon und email hat mir das auch niemand so richtig erklärt, nur das es richtig teuer €€ wird. Klingt für mich so wie die gespräche mit den psychologen in krankenhaus was ein jahr lang gedauert hat, habe davon allerdings nie einen bericht erhalten, nur irgendwann dann das diagnose festgestellt wurde und termin beim endokrinologen.
Weisz nicht was ich den gericht jetzt antworten soll, aber es kann doch nicht sein das es einfacher wäre die statsbürgerschaft zu ändern als den vornamen. Hier in Norwegen geht das einfach ohne gericht.

Had a couple of discussions on the topic of postop transsexualls and suicide rates. It would be interesting to learn more about the topic and find out if the before and after rates are significantly different or not. Recieved many links, to studies etc. but in the end many of them are made/published by people with an agenda, either pro or contra sex change surgery.
So I want to ask which research papers (on the topic) you deem unbiased and properly done?

This was made by third year audiovisual communication students of the EHU/UPV (The public university of the Basque Country). The director was Oihane Garcia and the producer Izaskun Gutierrez.
It's on Spanish and Basque, but I hope you find it interesting.

This is a text as a basis for a speech about how an international fght for LGBT rights is a fight for a world without borders. It's going to be held on a camp for and by young pirates (pirate party) in europe now in august with the title "Beyond Borders", I'm the one giving it and I need some help to filling it with more stuff. Either you can read it and give tips on how to change, what to ad and what to remove or you can contribute with your own experiences of traveling as a transperson (it's mostly trans*experience I'm going to talk about since I myself am a transman, but your other LGBT experiences are also welcome).
The speech:
Borders surrounding different countries isn’t a problem just for the normative travel behavior, for persons who wants to be able to travel without any fuss of border control and such. The cost of having different opinions on what’s considered ok in different countries is that people whos opinions, sexualities, identities, religion, ethnicities etc are totally ok in one country might be illegal or considered not ok in another country. The pressure and worrying of traveling when you belong to minorities are much higher when not. I can only speak for the minorities that I belong to and today I’m going to speak about traveling as a transsexual.
I don’t know if everyone here knows exactly what a transsexual person is so I’m going to make a brief explanation. I’m a transman, a person who was born in a normatively considered female body and identify as a male, the opposite is called transwoman. Of course you can also identify as something else than male or female, often called non-binary transpersons, but there are rarely or no connections with the biological look of the body when it comes to them and it’s not as tightly connected to surgery and hormones, so my speak will be mostly about transmen and transwomen, but I guess that some non-binary people can relate to it as well. The opposite of a transperson is a cis-person, a person that was born with a body with the same normatively considered attributes as the gender they express themselves as and identify with.
In Sweden you can go through an investigation financed mostly by our welfare to get the diagnose “transsexual” as with any investigation considering psychological variations (although I wouldn’t consider transsexualism to be a psychological variation). After about one to two years you can get treatment with hormones and surgery also financed mostly by our welfare. You also get to change your juridical gender accordingly when the investigation is done so that the right gender is presented on your passport. Sweden is also rated high amongst countries considering transsexual care, although they up until 2013 performed forced sterilization on transsexual people who wanted their juridical gender to be changed which they still do in a lot of other countries.
When traveling, you have to consider different risks as a transsexuall person.
There is the risk of not completely passing as the gender you are expressing yourself as, for example if you’re a transwoman wearing a dress and others don’t see you as a woman, then the risk of you being a victim of various assaults, verbally and physically, increases depending on which country you’re in and the action of you wearing a dress may also be considered illegal in some countries. If you’re lucky you’ll get help from the police, but in other cases the police may be the ones beating you up.
There is the risk of being taken for being on steroids, since testosterone is classified as doping and is the hormone that transmen take there is a risk for a transman to get in trouble because of that. The solution is to always have the certificate from your doctor with you, but I don’t know how waterproof that is in every country.
There is the risk of you being stopped in some control due to your papers “not matching”, either between them or with your looks. For example if you have a new passport with the right gender and an examination proof with the old gender and/or name on. Here as well as with the risk of being taken for being on steroids, you can have a certificate from your doctor as a proof.
There is the great risk of not being able to trust in protection from the police when assaulted in a lot of countries where transpeople still aren’t considered ok. This risk is what I consider the toughest one to handle, since the police are the ultimate force that are supposed to protect you, and you being a victim of something that requires police to step in aren’t very much something you can do much about stopping.
There is the risk of discrimination from various institutes as hospitals, educational systems and such.
So what is “no borders”? Is it being able to move wherever you want in the world? Is it being able to travel anywhere without a passport? Is it being able to buy whatever from wherever? Maybe it includes all this, but for those who do not have to check if they can hold hands with their partner in the country they want to visit without risking their life, it may be difficult to foremost think of a world without borders as a world where you can be yourself in every part of the world. For LGBT-people, the borders are even thicker than those for people who are not. To achieve a world without borders, we need to fight discrimination, assaults and harassment on minorities around the world. An international fight for LGBT rights, for human rights, is a fight for a true world without borders.
