VIP Class Notes (Tibo)

Speaking exercise

in china this isn’t a normal thing and no one will talk about this kind of topic and nobody around me is anti transgender.
It is a topic far from me so I have no clear opinion or option on which side.

And if she or her is a normal people and have a normal job and wants to have a normal life they can choose the life they really want to have so no one has the right to judge them

When he was 18 or 19 he thought he should be a female so he decided to talk to his parents and he wanted to change his gender but in China. It is so weird to talk about this kind of thoughts especially to your parents and his parents cannot accept his choice but he decided to do it and borrow some money from his friends to have several surgeries and she become a very famous is successful dancer and her husband comes from the US and they adopt 3 kids.

more and more people will be honest to themselves to admit they are gay. there are no shameless about it.
And maybe they admit they really love the person have the same gender and they choose to talk to their parents to talk the truth and more parents can accept this kind of change.

At the end all of the parents hope their kids have a happy life.
I don’t think it is a big problem if one can choose their own life. If they don’t hurt anybody it is their freedom.

in Korean there are young actors who chose to kill themselves. a lot of them have a lot of attacks from internet judgements.
we have a dedicated person to check the chat during the live stream.

He doesn’t accepted, one day WeChat posted an article to show old people need more exercise and he will follow it.
