The lead singer of the band Against Me! (famous for their hit "I Was a Teenage Anarchist") tells "Rolling Stone" magazine he's becoming a woman but he's not attracted to men. According to the magazine, 31-year-old Tom Gabel reveals he has a condition called gender dysphoria just like Chaz Bono (except in reverse) and has questioned his sexual identity since he was a kid.
Tom claims he will take hormones and undergo electrolysis to help his transformation into a woman and is considering undergoing surgery to help in the process.
Gabel tells the magazine his new name will be Laura Jane Grace.
In spite of the transformation, Tom insists he's not attracted to men and will still be married to his wife with whom he shares a 2-year-old daughter.
It is kind of confusing...How can Tom be so sure that his wife will still want him? And his child? Instead of having a father and a mother as family, she will end up with 2 moms? It's not an easy situation at all...Just imagine the shock for the three of them!
What do you think?
