    I am Michael C. Oboza. I am a Club founder and president of SAGA, Straight and Gay Alliance in Illinois. And I am tired of transphobia! As a respected activist, I will stand, even alone for Transgender human rights, always.

    Hi, Natalie! Yay transmonster! Er, boo transmonster. Whatever.

    Confidence: I do still believe that in most cases, when you can walk into a room and feel like you belong there (or else fake it until your confidence level comes up to that), by doing so, you will convince others that you belong there as well. Everything else is nagging self-conscious stuff that everyone has, but that gets usually more exaggerated than its worth.

    For MTFs: To be as feminine as possible
    For FTMs: To be as masculine as possible
    To physically transition as quickly as you can
    To become a more desirable sexual partner
    To resolve gender dysphoria
