I have known personally 4 trans folk, (1 female to male, and 3 male to female.)
Always find it very odd that people who transition past the age of 40 are ALWAYS male to female. ALWAYS. I have yet to see a female to male transition over 40.
I wonder why they do it? Especially as they rarely look that great.
Sorry if that offends anyone. I just mean I can always tell they were previously a man (when they transition from male to female over the age of 40.)
As I said, I wonder why so many men decide to transition at middle age or older? I recently saw a programme about it on ITV (transformation Street,) and they were mostly male to female (and over 40,) and quite honestly, I wasn't convinced by some of them.
The only one on this show that looked really convincing and really good, was a female to male trans, who was about 19-20 years old. The rest were middle aged and older (and male to female,) and as I said, they did not look great, and I was not convinced by a few of them.

FWIW I can't be doing with all these trans threads on MN. It's full of rabid women frothing at the mouth about the issue, unable to engage in any proper debate, instead choosing to shout down those who disagree with them so that they can continue their little echochamber where it's acceptable to trample over the rights of vulnerable people.
Utter. Flaming. Nonsense. 
Just because some people don't 'get' transgender, or don't agree with people having sex changes, that doesn't mean they are shouty and 'frothing at the mouth,' and want to trample over their rights. And let's face it, some of them want too many rights (going into female only changing rooms whilst they are still biologically male for example.) It seems SOME of them have more 'rights' than actual female born females. And if they don't get their own way, they cry, and piss and moan, and claim bigotry and prejudice, until they DO get their own way!
