For me, I always wanted to be female. That was something I understood long before I really even knew what the differences were between boys and girls. And actually, if I hadn't discovered the biological side of it, I would've had an easier time dealing with it all.
Well, I think that's all part of the learning process. Most of my life, I just felt wrong and wished I could be somehow closer to femininity. That grew to feeling like I should have been a woman. Finally, I realized that I AM a woman and because of that I feel like a woman.
