I think trans people make others look at themselves in a different light as well. A lot of people don't like that. The disconnect trans people feel with their bodies is something that is difficult for a cis person to perceive. If they can't imagine it, it must not be real.

I find most are self involved enough to not really care what others do with their lives, as long as it doesn't effect them. Those that feel strongly feel strongly, and generally should be avoided. Violence against trans people is very real.

It is incredibly frustrating to be consistently dismissed for being who you are really. Fighting for survival, trying to hold a job, finding doctors, and places to live safely. All while wondering if the person starring at who from across the room with hateful eyes is violent. After their family disowned them, as well as all their friends. They still fight for their medications, and work and save for those surgeries. All while fighting the stigma of not fitting inside of a neat little binary.

No amount of counseling or therapy will stop someone from being who they are.
