sofast–somaybe:

I feel like society really pressures you to choose one gender, and that’s not how it works. I mean, a lot of transsexuals or transgender people that I know have gotten full gender reassignment surgery and then regretted it because they felt this pressure to be passable. I mean, passing privilege is such a real concept and people don’t think about it - people just want to be normal. It’s OK to not be normal, and I think there needs to be more representation of that gray area.
