A trans man claims he "gained privilege" after transitioning and is treated better now than when he lived as a woman - despite "daily transphobic online comments". Samuel Giardina, 24, came out as transgender in 2020 aged 21 - after previously thinking he was a bisexual female. He came out to his family and close friends, started testosterone, cut off his long hair, changed his name - from Samantha - and adopted male pronouns. He had top surgery so he could finally bin the chest binders - and he has never looked back.
