It actually is an illness. Alot of trans people think that saying that is insulting, but im on the other side. Im a medical professional, and there's no shame in it, I got bad asthma and allergies too. GID (Gender Identity Disorder) is an illness listed in every branch of medicine, including pediatrics. There are just so few people who actually talk about it, and even fewer that actually transition (takes balls). The general public considers it very taboo, mostly because of lack of education.
Im not really one of those rainbow flag waving sillies. Im pretty private about it (except obv. online). I prefer to separate myself from 'the community'.. because I dont want to get hated on. Did you hear about that poor transgirl that got jumped and killed in NY last week..? Yikes. Thank god I pass. (My fellow tranny friends hate my view on this). ~
