I have a friend who is gay but is also trans (female to male)
he lives in smalltown USA, which must be a massive challenge

Even in "enlightened" areas it's a challenge
I know 5 transgender people, all of whom have gone through horrible amounts of name calling and abuse from people they really didn't expect it from.
