The gender transitioning process is all about priorities. There can be so much to do — where to begin?

Actually, it begins years before we start the official process. For many, it began in our childhood, when we felt something wasn't right. Back in the 1950s and '60s when I was a kid, I didn't know about gender issues. I just thought God didn't know whether to make me a boy or a girl, so left me in-between.

Today, of course, kids are far more aware, and I envy them. I wish I had the opportunities when I was a teen that they have now. I would have transitioned by the time I was 20. But I digress, yes? We must look forward.
