Of course, you can be gay and in the closet, but it's very difficult to be transsexual in secret. The very visible period of transition, mandated for at least one year in the West, is when a transsexual's life is usually at its most dangerous. So, some of the people discussed and interviewed here fall somewhere on the gender spectrum–a question of gender identity rather than sexual orientation, a separate quandary for a young person to be going through–rather than being simply gay, but it's tough to be an out-and-about transsexual (or experiment and find out what you truly are) when your life is constantly in danger.
