Transitioning can be a long and difficult process, with judgment from family and society and decisions about surgery and hormone therapy complicating everything, but it’s all worth it when you can come out on the other side and experience gender euphoria and trans joy. But for many trans people, speaking in a voice that doesn’t match their gender identity can be a stumbling block to feeling comfortable in their own skin. While there is vocal feminization or masculinization surgery, it doe...| Gay Pride - LGBT and Queer Voices
