The Sad Reality

The sad reality for some women who transition is that even with facial surgery, and maybe, but not necessary, breast augmentation or liposuction surgeries, they will never really pass beyond getting through life with some occasional stares or soem questions or comments.

The sad reality is that they know who they are as a woman, but the mirror tells them something else, the body they were born with and have just doesn't get them very far as a woman. What's worse is they read the blogs and columns of women who do pass who tell them, "Hang in there.", among the rest of the hype to make them feel better.

But really all that does is make them feel worse, as there is nothing worse than someone who has succeeded in passing telling someone who doesn't it's ok. It only makes the other woman feel superior and better. No one needs it or wants it.

And it's the sad reality all the way around, to transition and never really arrive at your goal, to just be invisible as an ordinary woman when you see other women not only finish but succeed and even be beautiful.
