Brave?

People tell me I’m brave for transitioning but I say that I had no choice, the other option was too dark.

Manama: Police in Kuwait have arrested three cross-dressers as they were dancing to songs played loudly on the radio of their moving car.

The music and the dancing attracted the attention of a traffic police patrol in the commercial Salmiya area in the capital Kuwait City, prompting them to signal to the three “women” to pull over, local daily Al Rai reported on Sunday.

Upon the verification of the papers, the police discovered that the driver and two passengers were in fact men who were wearing women’s dresses.

One of the three had a record of cross-dressing and had been released upon signing a pledge not to wear women’s dresses in public again.
Are they brave or was it something that they had to do?

Sometimes here in the west was forget what other LGBT people face around the globe, sometimes it is a matter of life or death just when you hold hands or go out in public crossdressed.
