Here is the story of the only trans person I have dealt with personally (that I know about). This was in a very small town (Rutledge) in one of the most rural parts of East Tennessee. Pretty much everyone in that town is a Conservative Christian. She was an older translady (50's) who dressed like Aunt Bee and was the main reporter for the tiny local newspaper. I saw her in the courthouse all the time and everyone treated her with total respect. I am sure she probably had few problems from time to time, but everyone I knew treated her properly in public.
