How dare you speak for transgender individuals, did you even bother to ask if anyone approved?

Actually, yes. This piece was written by myself, but reviewed by a transgender friend, compiled on the advice of other transgender individuals, and is attempting to take the time to explain something that transgender individuals shouldn’t have to. I have the time, the patience, and I am not generally the target of hostility for my gender identity, so I wanted to contribute something educational, useful, and hopefully improve the dialogue.

I am missing a lot of information in this piece. The complications of biology, the rules surrounding asking people their transition stages, I’m probably not as sensitive as I should be towards the inherent internal experience which is gender. But I’m trying. This is not “the only source you’ll ever need” on the topic. This is a place to start.

Go be kind, go be gentle, go try to respect the liberty of others.
