Transgender is always a big topic people talk about. You either agree with it or you don't, there is no in between for this. The definition of being transgender is denoting or relating to a person whose sense of personal identity and gender does not correspond with their sex. I feel it is extremely important for people to feel comfortable in their own skin and not to care what other people think of them because everyone is human and everyone deserves to be treated equally and to be loved. Caitlyn Jenner is a well known transgender who was once a man and became a women. Many people don't agree with his decision but it doesn't affect him and that's how it should be.

A man named Edie Weinstein interviewed a transgender person who was once a man and is now a woman. This person had so much doubt and fear of what other people said and they treated him because he wanted to be different that he stayed in house and never went outside. He had a whole family and kids just like any other normal person would. With being transgender there are higher risks of suicide for them. The suicide for trans men is 46% and for women it's 42%. There is nothing wrong with living life this way and it hurts me when people say rude things or are just down right ignorant and uneducated towards this.
