* was too late, and haven't read Calavera's post properly, but wrote this to reply a post earlier..
Well, I wondered why you (or others) actually wish to 'harm' your body, having to take 'alien' hormones, undergo some serious surgery and kinda think that when that's 'done' you would feel complete?
I kinda mind the thought that after the change, and only then, you'd feel whole.. your true self. I'm (bluntly) convinced that you can find you without any surgery.
Fuck, wish not to preach but.. I believe acceptance is one of the most powerful strength one can learn to obtain. Accepting your body the way you were born with it, gender-wise I mean, is a greater thing than thinking a radical physical change is going to..
Well.. kinda hope you wait a little before taking any serious steps towards 'transing' and.. try to learn about the implication of the (latin here) word/verb.. acceptare.
