     Most people are unaware of the required process that is involved for a transsexual individual to transition. There are actually standards of care involved that dictate the entire process. These standards we will talk about in this section as well as a few other topics.

     Being transgendered is a very difficult thing. There are many challenges faced, and it takes a strong person to get through all of those challenges intact. Due to society's negativity towards gender variance, a lot of emotional and psychological stress is put on anyone who identifies as a transgendered individual. Finding ways to deal with these problems can be very difficult sometimes. This part of Transgender 101 focuses on this.
