I really enjoyed listening to this panel discussion hosted by Genevieve Jacobs on ABC 666. 'The transgender decision as an older man' features a former cop from Berridale and a retired engineer from Gundaroo who share their experiences of gender dysphoria and later, their decision to transition into women.
One of the men remains married to his wife, while the other started to explore life as a woman in the years following his wife's death.
Towards the end of the panel, one of the men talks about whether he had the right to inflict pain on the people he loves in making his decision to live life as a woman, which was the most powerful moment of the discussion for me.
And one related link - I Am A Girl! is a short documentary (that's online in full) about a 13 year old Dutch girl who was born a boy.
