The transition from female to male is a long but rewarding process, says S.V. Koumakis.
Ancient Greek myths include several tales of beautiful maidens being transformed by the gods into heroic young men, yet strangely, the Greeks had no legends of men becoming women.
Conversely, the West seems to have a greater focus on male to female (M2F) ->-bleeped-<-, rather than female to male (F2M) trans people.
