Imagine you wake up tomorrow morning and you find yourself trapped in the body of the opposite gender. How would it make you feel? Distraught, desperate? These, counsellor for transgendered people David Hawley told Sideways News, are precisely the emotions of a person with gender dysphoria – unable to reconcile the mismatch between brain and body.

“You can’t get on with your life because it dominates everything until you get it sorted out.” Hawley said.
