And does he still care? Or has his life changed, did his parents succeed? Did their plan to “fix” Tony work? Or will he remember - is the real Tony still somewhere inside?

The irony of this story is that the transgender person is trying to bring out the “real” person that has been suppressed in another person! Usually, we suppress our own real personalities; I buried the real me, the female me, so far down that I thought she was gone - that I had killed her. When I finally admitted to myself and the world who I really was, I was afraid that it was too late. But it wasn’t.

Is it too late for Tony?
