Thank you for putting this blog up. I look forward to hearing more. I have felt for some time that the trans community needs to drop the victim mentality that pervades every aspect of it. So many enter transition prepared to lose everything, I think people should enter it determined not to lose anything. Transition should be a positive and affirming experience, and yet so often it is painted with negatives. Is it any wonder that so many trans lives end up in a place of loneliness and despair? Let's stop the negativity and live positive lives!
