i watched a doc when i was maybe 11 or 12 that followed a trans woman going through a heavily transmedicalized process. she was required to successfully dress feminine for a few years and be 100% passing, forced to be hetero, etc. it showed the whole surgery in graphic detail.

it did it's job and popped the tiny balloon in my head i had at the time since i knew i like girls and didn't see my "girl self" as hyper femme. don't remember the name of the documentary but it was done in the U.S. and had a very late 80s sheen
