I think it's highly personal, and subjective.
Me, in my I place, cannot transition, but offing myself over something I cannot change isn't an answer. I also think it's a bit dramatic. I do know that transitioning is purely personal and one should have a support system in place. But I'm 53 and it isn't going to happen for me, yet I've lived my entire life in this skin with these bits, which I do my darnedest to ignore on a daily basis.
I was born this way and have fought all my life just to be seen as a human being, no matter the skin I inhabit.
