LA CROSSE, Wis. (WKBT) -Approximately 700,000 people are transgender in the U.S., according to a survey by the University of California Los Angeles. That includes La Crosse's Cindy Munson and Jackson Jantzen, who have each dealt with gender identity their entire lives.

"I've been Cindy for about 13 years now," Munson said.

Munson's story really began 66 years ago when she was born in a boy's body. She grew up in the 1950s as Todd.
