Despite being trapped in a male body, Robyn knew she was meant to be a female from the age of ten. It took her 23 years to make the transition.

"I wouldn't call my life living up until that point. I was just following the routine. I would get up, get dressed, go to work, come home, have dinner, go to sleep and just be shut-in," Robyn said.

During the period before she transitioned, Robyn said she didn't have too many friends. As a male she weighed 160 kilos and didn't look after herself.
