to not feel comfortable with who they are & have the guts to do something about it?

Not only do I admire their courage to do what they feel is right but I love them as people. The ones I volunteer with are so level headed and generous.
Thanks for asking this question, it gives us a chance to show our appreciation.

I absolutely admire their courage. Sometimes us gays,lesbians,and bisexuals complain about all the things that happen with us, but transexuals sometimes have it much worse. I greatly admire their courage. I notice that someone copare them to suicide bombers, but suicide bombers hurt others. Trans only do things to themselves. It's no different than someone getting cosmetic surgery. They are grown and it's their life. They're not hurting anyone else.

I completely admire them. They make my heart squeeze a little in hearing their plights, especially when people tell them they're wrong- not just discrimination, but tell them, essentially, that they don't exist.
I still admire the hell out of Lou Sullivan for making it possible for gay FtM's (female-bodied men who are sexually attracted to men, not women) to receive testosterone and sex changes, as well as for lesbian MtF's to receive estrogen and sex changes. Before, it was thought that you had to like the same sex to be a true transsexual- he paved the way for realizing the difference between sexual orientation and gender identity.
They are all heroes in my eyes.

You know a guy who made in simple terms approximately each and every regulation enforcement officer in his state a criminal by making use of signing a regulation prohibiting magazines that carry extra effective than 7 rounds whilst maximum regulation enforcers carry 10 around magazines? Signing this invoice confirmed his lack of information and helping him exhibits yours.

I absolutely do. I have a friend called Patsy who has suffered horrific abuse and rejection whilst going through her changes. She is now a beautiful and strong woman. I have every respect for someone who can triumph over adversity and become the person they want to be.

Yup. The amount of struggles that any of them have to overcome are enough to grind the average person into the dirt.

It is sad to me.
Some say that self mutilation takes courage too...wait seriously, that is self mutilation.
It is sad to see darkness deceive.
Suicide bombers are fairly courageous as well. No?
I am truly sad for both brothers/sisters.

it's all in their frame of reference I wouldn't expect others to fathom or except it. At least not I.
