Hello. I have always known that there was something different about me. I didn’t want to play the games that the other boys were playing, like football and soccer. I also was interested in dresses and flowers.

Although I went through a long racist phase, I eventually realized that all of the hate and angst in my heart was because of my gender dysphoria. I used to blame the Jews or blacks or whatever, but my life became much better when I realized who I was - a woman in a man’s body.

What great awakenings have you had?
