Now this news kinda came surprising for me, but that was because I didn't really watched any interviews from him, just been listening to his music which I really like. I gotta say tho that I can only support him and his band after taking this step since it does take some huge balls to do that.

Discuss after having read the article.

:lol:

OT: Read the topic, I guess you'd have to read the full article they produce to start to understand his mindset into making this decision. I respect it, but I don't exactly agree with it, even though his wife is supportive, I feel for her and his family, would probably be a difficult time for them.

Heh, that dude is like the last person of who I'd expect such a decision since I always found him pretty manly and awesome looking. I always support people like him, I love the pure honesty. Feel good man, fucking live.

I respect it, but I don't exactly agree with it

You're probably some christian fuckface who doesn't agree with anything besides the bible and it's limitations, am I right? Please tell me why you wouldn't agree with that?
Ofcourse his wife and his whole family are going to have a hard time getting used to that decision, but why would you not agree or maybe in your eyes even approve his decision?
You should've felt alot more for that guy if he didn't choose to live on like a woman, since he's a chick trapped in a dude's body. That hurts him alot more than the people around him for what he chose to do.

Wo didn't expect such a strong response man :s, no I'm not a Christian I despise religions, I didn't say I don't agree with it because some 'god' told me to. Its just a personal opinion, I respect that he's told people and accepted who he is.

It really seems to that she is so happy right now and seeing a person being that happy makes me happy.
