Regardless of how you feel about transgender in general this is a very insightful article from a literal insider, a nurse who worked in a trans clinic in St Louis.

It not a particularly short piece but its worth the read. Important insights you probably did not know about.

[FONT=&quot]I am a 42-year-old St. Louis native, a queer woman, and politically to the left of Bernie Sanders. My worldview has deeply shaped my career. I have spent my professional life providing counseling to vulnerable populations: children in foster care, sexual minorities, the poor.
[/FONT][FONT=&quot]For almost four years, I worked at The Washington University School of Medicine Division of Infectious Diseases with teens and young adults who were HIV positive. Many of them were trans or otherwise gender nonconforming, and I could relate: Through childhood and adolescence, I did a lot of gender questioning myself. I’m now married to a transman, and together we are raising my two biological children from a previous marriage and three foster children we hope to adopt. [/FONT]
