'Good luck to them, they've already lost'
Love Elfvelin, 22, who has said no to sex change surgery in part because he one day wants children of his own, says the two Christian Democrat MPs who want to continue sterilizing transgender Swedes won't get far.
Since "coming out as a boy", Elfvelin has faced an array of reactions. Some have accused him of wanting attention, while others claimed it was youthful folly that would pass.
"Some even said I wanted to be a man because it was easier than being a woman," Elfvelin told The Local.
He always objected to being referred to as a boy, even at daycare, but decided to suppress the feeling and live like a girl once he started school. By age 16, however, he said it could no longer be ignored.
