"After leaving her Hasidic roots behind, this trans woman got some awful hate directed at her.
Abby Stein, a second year student at Columbia University announced that she was leaving her Hasidic dynasty behind, and that she would transition into a woman.

The ultra-Orthodox community she left behind in Williamsburg directed some hatred towards her, but she says she is happy to have told her story and brought attention to trans issues.
