It can shape how minorities are viewed by society and how they view themselves. When my father came out as Trans almost 15 years ago there was hardly any representation of trans people in film and television, let alone positive representation. I felt that I had to keep this huge part of my life a secret because no one would understand. I was afraid people would laugh or judge not just my dad, but me. I was terrified for years that my dad would be hurt or even killed for just living his truth. It wasn't until Caitlyn Jenner shared her story that I felt safe enough to speak up because I knew I wasn't alone. Whether you are a POC, part of the LGBTQ community, or have a disability you deserve to be seen and heard always". facebook.com. Susan Kleinheksel-Horn.

Having said that, I am going to say it anyway. For those that don't know me well, my transition began 20 years ago, and I have been living fully as Susan for almost 15 years. I have gone through all the legal and physical changes one can go through. There is no doubt that it has been a difficult journey. FB has allowed me to observe others in various stages of the process, and that coupled with my own experiences have led me to make some observations I feel compelled to share. These observations apply only to m2f, because that is my experience". facebook.com. Susan Kleinheksel-Horn.
