Elena we all can't be gender warriors. Lives are too complex and to simply come to terms with being transgender is a monumental task itself without including the world's hate into the process. The media doesn't want happy transgender stories. They need to sell advertising. The good cis people who respect us get no press coverage.

Simply being ourselves is the greatest weapon against the hate. Stay strong and purge your hate-filled filters occasionally with the good people and stories that do exist. It just harder to find them. They do exist, for example, here in the wonderful Medium community we share here.
