Let's assume now, we have built and climbed our four walls, and now it's time to build a roof to keep the rain (or tears) off our bodies.
Hopefully all your doors and windows work well and the light is finally illuminating the dark closet you have been living in.
One thing about our transgender transition is, it never seems to be over. As we build our roof, it's time to decide to change our gender markers. Changing your gender markers varies deeply from state to state and country to country (for you international readers.)

Speaking of the "VA", even the system there wasn't too hard to work in my advantage and now I'm listed as "female" in the system.
So, if you consider gender markers being my transgender roof, I have gone as far as I can in getting things done and secure. Every once in a while, my dead name will show up on something, but not often.
As with any structure though, your work and upkeep seems to be never ending. I'm sure we will have more to come!
