Does it? For most LGB people I imagine it does, but I'm not convinced that it necessarily does for us MtF Transsexuals. After surviving the bullying and harassment of growing up MtF TS we are greated with the worst discrimnation of all – financial.

As someone that knows first hand of being bullied from a biological boy at age 8 and a transwoman some 20 years later both as a bully (usually by "bullying the bully") and a victim of bullying.

I am exploring the possibility of jumping on the It Gets Better bandwagon with "It Gets Better: Take it from Ava. She's Been There."
