"I've thought a lot about when the exact point in my childhood was that life became unmanageable. A few months before my 11th birthday, out of the blue, my parents, three siblings, and I had to up and move from New Jersey to South Carolina. My father, it seemed, had gotten in too deep with a small-time Italian Mafia gang. He had become involved at first to score cocaine for himself and my mother, but the situation progressed to the point that it seemed he needed to leave and take the whole family with him."

This is not a Trans* issue.
Men in the western world have FEW viable role models. Further, they are punished for acting masculine.

Drugged for acting like boys; told to be in touch with their feelings and emote; few males to pattern themselves on - few in teaching, few in leadership roles, few who deserve respect, and hammered home on every TV show is how GOOD women are, how EVIL (and usually STUPID) men are.

Bad situation, and our civilization won't last much longer...  Though some believe that's the plan.
