A brave and ground-breaking first-hand account of the life, struggles and
victories of a young transgender man, as told by YouTuber Alex Bertie.
I guess we should start at the beginning. I was born on 2 November 1995.
The doctors in the hospital took one look at my genitals and slapped an F on
my birth certificate. 'F' for female, not fail - though that would actually
have been kind of appropriate given present circumstances.
When I was 15, I realised I was a transgender man. That makes it sound like
I suddenly had some kind of lightbulb moment. In reality, coming to grips with
my identity has taken a long time.
Over the last six years, I've come out to my family and friends, changed
my name, battled the healthcare system, started taking male hormones and have
had surgery on my chest. My quest to a beard is almost complete. This is my
story.
