ALL Win wants is to live a normal life.

From childhood to adulthood, he has had to endure countless taunts because of how he looks and acts.

"When I played with other kids in the park, they would call me bapuk or pondan," says the 44-year-old transsexual, recalling the torment he went through, even at pre-school age.

It is on the other side of the world Val

What they do there is highly unlikely to have any impact over here.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.
