15+ People Who Changed Their Gender and Found Great Happiness in the Transition

While some people only need a visit to a hairstylist or a nail artist to attain the necessary changes to their appearance and feel happy, others require a bit more than that. Gender transition is something we are going to talk about today. It’s an important, personal decision that requires immense courage and bravery and can bring a great deal of positive change to someone’s life.

We at Bright Side admire people who listen to their heart and do what it asks them to do. That’s why, today, we compiled a list 15+ people who were brave enough to start the long journey toward gender transition.
