Chile transgender: 'Growing up here is torture'

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-44237691

Transgender rights groups say it is a humiliating process which involves getting reports from psychologists and psychiatrists, and stripping off to have naked photos taken to show what sex they are.
