My procedure was specifically referred to as a sex change operation, rather than a gender one.
My gender identity was fixed before I was born. I just stopped hiding it.

Conversion therapy is an attempt to make someone go from gay to straight. It is impossible!
It is illegal and unethical for licensed therapists to conduct this therapy, however, religious leaders have no sanctions and are doing it with adolescents.
