Having been deprived of the pleasure of active fatherhood by the State I was pleased to see that I am now able to ensure a more secure opportunity of fathering a child into adulthood. All I need do is enter a marriage with another man and adopt. Should we ever part company and the matter of access go before a court I could then be sure that I would be treated as an equal parent.

I started looking for a partner as soon as the law was passed but my problem of sexual attraction has dogged me. I approached social welfare with my problem and was offered funding to undergo aversion therapy. For two weeks I was forced to read hundreds of affidavit’s from females wishing to destroy their male partner. At night I was made to sleep with headphones delivering speeches from third wave women’s rights groups. My room had full length posters of Helen Clarke, Judge Somerville and Louise Nicholas, however this had no effect. The State is very keen to offer me funding to have a full sex change but, alas, that will not assist me to become a homosexual.

Being an active father and experiencing the joy of raising my children is an integral component for the meaning of life to me so i am at my wits end. Has anyone any ideas of who or what might help me?
