awkward LukeA operation talk

awwwwwwkwarddddddddddd LukeA operation talk 01.07.12

what a brave strong chap,
his talk was equivalent to gangsters paradise rap.
so open and honest on every deliver,
thinking about lukeA emotions makes me shiver.
he no's how ignorant this world can judge,
how many weeks in are we, i wont budge.
i don't care if you have been under the knife,
all i see is a gentle-man who has a wife.
you don't get involved which makes you rich,
and when you do its only a very tame b--ch.
you do keep going up LukeA and you are consistent,
your BB operation is fantastic, my vote for you is persistent.

( i don't care what anyone says - at this stage - LukeA is in my top 3 to win along with Lauren and Adam. the question is - has the operation talk put you off voting for LukeA ?)

Nope, I like Luke but I am pulling for Deana and Lauren :)

I found it really interesting. I started doing some internet searching
on gender identity disordee/ dismorphia as I wanted to know more
on launch night. The hormone injections for female 2 male FTM trans
men has all sorts of effects eg skin hardens 60% possibility of baldness
as well as obviouis voice deepening which often sounds squeaky like Chris
Although most trans people are male to female MTF there has been a spate of teen
'females' in US wanting to be boys/male and trans teens is closer to
50% 50% in terms of wanting to be male/ female. Theres a concern that girls are wanting
to be boys to get ahead. Girls wanting to be boys is relatively
acceptable in certain parts of Islamic world whereas gay isnt.

His talk about wanting to change and have the operation didnt seem all that convincing to me, plus certain things he was saying lacked certain knowledge that one would think a person in his position would be quite well up on. After being privvy to this conversation, I am not totally convinced Luke is 100% commited to a change.

His operations and his story hasn't put me off voting for him but his rather inactive role as a housemate and limited conversation has definately.
He really needs a wake up call and get much more interactive in the house.

Please don't post long, uninterrupted titles it messes up the front page

I found it refreshing to hear an interesting convo for the first time in the house ,I must admit I did think Becky was somewhere else ,it didn't look like she was listening .

And what knowledge was it lacking?

I assume you are up to date on all the information regarding gender reassignment surgery?
