Paddy the transgender eight year old
I don't want to be a girl, I am a girl
Today we meet Paddy McGuire, one of the youngest transgender people in the UK.
Born a boy, the eight year old expressed interest in playing with dolls and reading books aimed at girls from a very young age and as she grew older begged her mum to buy her a dress and refused to have her hair cut.
Now Paddy dresses as a girl at home but pretends to be a boy at school to avoid teasing.
Later today Channel 4 will broadcast the first in a groundbreaking series of documentaries following some of the youngest transgender people in Britain and America as they and their families make life-changing decisions at astonishingly young ages.
We're joined by Paddy and her mum and dad Lorna and Paddy and brother Robbie, 13.
