I don't personally know anyone that goes though that, but as mean as kids are now a days, that can't be easy growing up knowing your something other people think you aren't.
Years ago I was in school with a woman who was trans-gender. As a male he'd been an active-duty infantry officer who served in Desert Storm. Married with a child. When I knew her she was post-hormones, had breasts, dressed as a female, used the ladies room, but had male goodies yet. Had been to court to change names and had been declared a legal female for drivers license, etc., purposes. Still married to the same woman. Problem was, the wife was in love with another man, and her "husband" was in love with him as well. The husband/former male needed the wife's insurance while she (ain't pronouns great?) was in school, so they hesitated to divorce. The marriage was legal in MN for all purposes, but not for federal legal purposes. This despite the fact that if they divorced, and changed their minds, they would not be allowed to legally re-marry in MN. The child of course remained the child of both, with a birth certificate listing the father's male name.
And she was looking for work at a large, white-shoe law firm. This was, despite the above, the biggest problem of all.
