I have found some of the perspectives presented here to be interesting.
I do not push or reject peoples ideas on transition, but do make them think of all the possible negatives.
As someone who transitioned somewhat early in life in my 20s, and fairly early in the whole timescale of what I call the dark ages. After transition and SRS at 26. My partner and I moved to suburbs and grew to be two older women. I never really thought of being Trans for 30 years. Now that I am back out to others, still don't feel Trans but do feel more empathetic to others. As an older woman I now have to decide how to tell doctors my background, in case it makes any difference to a diagnosis.
Did try the dating game early on. They never progressed very far as to telling my full background. As for having a vagina, it does come in handy for either male or female partners.
