Must be tough to be transgendered person.  They are basically people nobody wants.  For example, for a man who becomes a woman, what type of person does she have a chance with?  Straight males don't want her, and I'd assume this is the largest target considering the transgendered see themselves as women.  Gay males don't want them, well, because they want other males.  Same can be said of straight females.  Gay females, perhaps?  I'd think that's even unlikely.  So these transgendered people risk their lives by maintaining their secret until the last possible moment.
