That's a good way of looking at it. I thought I was only same-sex attracted for the longest time, plus being gender non-conforming---I wanted to be perceived as "normal" by transitioning and becoming a "straight boy". I was, as the saying goes, "young and dumb".

Who are you trying to be attractive to? Who are you attracted to? Are you avoiding attracting certain people? Maybe these transitioners would find that too upsetting, though.

I think the tough questions need to be asked, because going through with surgery or taking hormones that have permanent effects is serious and needs to be thought over. If it's permanent/life changing, people will need to think about what they do before they do.
