I am not criticizing them, I’m just out of the loop.

    I transitioned (ugh I hate that word)

    Slightly off topic but I’m curious, why do you hate that word and is there different wording that you’d prefer?

      Not the person you’re replying to, but my guess is that “transition” implies some sort of inner journey, but transitioning is often really about changing how the world views you. You’re still the woman, man, or non-binary entity you always were, you’re just making changes to encourage/force everyone else to see you the same way.
