I can really appreciate this. I really don't bring up being transgender very often, pretty much for the same reason. How I define myself as a person and my passions lay in other areas, like the ones you mentioned. And this is important, purely focusing on the transition or being transgender in reality play a smaller role for me. The counter seems to be just as true, being more than a cis-gender person. I completely agree with you sentiment that the value is in people themselves, not a small characteristic.
