Dysphoria is the worst and every day I deal with it. I honestly think its horrible to feel like you have to hide it and you don't know how your girlfriend or spouse going to handle it.

My opinion if you love the person for them then who you are if you are a man or a transgender woman it shouldn't matter. But for some the shock is too much and they can't handle it because they don't understand.
