Impossible dream?

Just a few days ago, we posted a link to a video by Janet Mock, writer and editor for People.com who, even though she transitioned years ago as a teen, went public about her transsexual history. She expresses the optimistic view: that people will continue to accept her and that by being open she can help educate people about people born with transsexualism.

Blogger Teagan is finding that such optimism might be unwarranted. In her hard-hitting post asking the impossible? she wonders if those who knew her before can ever truly see the real her, no matter how hard they try. At what point does our own patience start to hurt us?
