More risks because many transsexuals don't really pass well-let's be honest...they get 'clocked', that is people can tell they are a man dressed as a woman. Some hatemongers have killed transsexuals because they find them so repulsive.
Now if the person can completely pass-and many of them do, then they're fine so long as they don't get outed.
"I think you'd be surprised at how accepting those who love us can be."
that's a very kind thought but I think people would get very weirded out. I could never come out as a girl to my friends-though family might be a little more accepting.
So there's too much to sacrifice to live in the body that you think you were meant to be in.
For some people the desire to transition is extremely intense that they don't care about the consequences. I think everyone has to do whatever they are comfortable with.
Do you like the sex you were born with?
