Not the same one.

Lynn Conway is a well-adjusted person who is an electronics / computer scientist and a college professor.

The transsexuals who go through their "sex change" at an earlier age are generally happier and more well adjusted than the ones who transition later in life.

The transsexual who is running for the major of Lansing is the one you are likely thinking of. That person had his, I mean her, sex change at 40-something years old, and still looks like a guy in a dress - due to body build and facial structure. This person apparently has a lot of anger due to society's rejection, and has dedicated the remainder of "her" life to being a "Transgender Activist".

Someone who transitions earlier in life can just go on and build a career doing something useful.

Bottom line - If someone's that sure they are a TS (Transsexual) at that early of an age, then I think it's best to let them "transition". Better that than to have others have to deal with the fallout if they decide to "transition" to the opposite sex once they're married and have a job.
