by my experience. Growing up in a rural town in the 70's there was no awareness of dys/trans needs. Gods I didn't even have the words to describe what I was going through. Now I'm reliant on care that makes it impossible for me to come out.

The woman is probably bitter, but I can see where she wouldn't have seen it coming. The trans woman probably had a lifetime of hiding experience as well ad being confused themselves.

I can't blame the woman for her anger, she would feel betrayed. I also feel the pain of the trans woman, having to rip themselves out of the life they created can't be easy.

Messy all round.

I can empathize, since coming out can seem like it's out of nowhere (when it isn't). Oneironaut Oct 2020 #6
