I have a very close male relative that is going through the process of hormones, then the mangling phase after. It is a very sad thing. He is very unhappy, and I suspect will always be so. His Mother took him to a counselor/psycho-logist/psycho-therapist that is a man inside of a mangled body of a “female”. I fully expect him to take himself out of the gene pool one day. As I said, very sad.
Im very sorry about your family member.
Two of my coworkers are “trans”. These are people I’ve known for years & have grown find of. It’s absolutely heartbreaking to see them mutilate themselves. I pray for them.
