I was recently speaking with a few friends, mentioning that it was finding out about Lynn and a few others like her, that gave me the strength to move forward with my own transition. We need more people like her to show others that it is possible to transition and live a, normal "life". Unfortunately many in the Cis world still see us as little more than psychos, drug addicts, and sex workers,. This negative image of us is further reinforced by the fact that for many, once we do transition, we simply disappear into the woodwork,.
