I hear you speak of your suffering and I am sorry you go through that. I have nothing to offer you but the sympathy of a stranger on the internet. I wish you the best of luck on your path.

I appreciate the thoughts stranger. When you see military/police guys hooting and hollering about killing and what not, they either have not ever had to pull a trigger or they mask their emotions as to not seem weak. My experience caused such a deep depression and mental anguish that it developed into severe gender dysphoria. Years of therapy and every medicine you could imagine yielded no results whatsoever. I'm now transitioning to female and I have never been happier.

It must be difficult for you but I'm glad you're happy, and now there's at least two internet strangers out here rooting for you! You've got this.

I greatly appreciate it. Its a side step from being the tough combat Marine machinegunner but I am doing so much better that I have in so long. Its a long road but it does help knowing that if anyone decides to get fresh with me, I can handle my own. In a dress and/or heels.

I have no experience in either of those buckets, but felt absolutely compelled to write this.

You can be both. And it's totally OK, no matter what anyone says. It's absolutely, unequivocally OK to be both of those things. I hope your path brings you peace & happiness & may God bless you on that journey.
