transitioning has not solved all of my issues for two reasons:

1: there was a period of development prior to transitioning that left my body in a state that could not be completely "fixed". many of the problems have been dealt with, but i will still always be a girly-faced midget with no penis. the same is true of those going male to female, and often to a greater degree.

2: since transitioning i have built up a new social circle and group of friends, but the effects of the rejection and ridicule from before have not been completely erased.

transitioning definitely helps, but it can't solve everything, and, for some people, what it can do (with current technology) just isn't enough.
