I would like someone to explain to me why it is such a big deal to tell

[Maraya1969]

Other people that you are trans. Grant it, I do not know a lot about the subject and the place I am getting my information at is probably not the best, (I'm watching "90 Day Fiance" and its spinoffs)

Like there was a guy who went to Columbia or some South American country to be with a women he fell in love with online and her parents were "conservative" and they made such a big damn deal about him telling the parents that he was trans. I understand that they need story lines and they want friction but damn, why can't he just be who he is without having to tell the entire world as if it is something to be ashamed of??

I've heard that Transsexuality is a birth defect where your body is born incongruous with your brain. One thinks it is male and the other female or visa versa. So you fix it if you can and go on. I've also heard on that show "Botched" that many women are born with 3 nipples and they just remove one of them. These women don't feel the need to tell the entire fucking world that they were born with an extra nipple!

I do not mean to be insensitive to anyone and if I have been I apologise. I wish people could just be and not have a bunch of jerks judge them. If this is a birth defect then it joins a whole bunch of other birth defects that are not judged as character defects, like dyslexia, color blindness, regular blindness, autism, missing limbs etc.

Thank you
