No burden to carry

In my opinion one of the sure fire ways to turn something into forbidden fruit is to bestow upon it any kind of secrecy. When we remove secrecy we demystify and lift whatever negative psychological aspects exist.

For me to find balance, removing secrecy became paramount because it helped normalize my nature and helped tremendously to remove any remaining stigma I carried from childhood. I realized that no one gave a shit and loved me just the same and learned that I had ostensibly made a mountain out of a mole hill for nothing.

Older gender variant people are much more prone to have adopted ritualistic and secret behaviour because many never came out; some not even to their spouses which turned their lives into complicated obstacle courses.

Young people today don't need to hide at all which means they can remove stigma and secrecy right from the outset and the psyche can fully mature with their gender variance in tow; all in full transparency. They can also find life partners who see them as they are right from the outset.

There is much less heavy psychological burden to carry. For them their challenge is more about what personal formula to adopt in this era of uniqueness; what to do or not and where do they stop.
