When I was younger I was brought up not having any prejudices which some people might think is wrong. But the first time I was really aware of transgender people in my life would probably have to be when I was 9 years old. At that time I believed that people who were referred to as "trannys" were only MtF (Male to female); which now has changed obviously.
But at 9 years old I had watched a video about transgender prostitution (I'm quite an odd person - I still have nothing against prostitutes) and the murders that happen which the trans people were/are victims of. I cried because I felt really sorry for them because lets just face it it's not right. I figured out from a young age that bullying of any kind shouldn't be tolerated, and every time my friends were bullied I would make the bully feel bad; this was because I had very few friends in school and those who were my friends were important to me.
