Strolling past this blue-eyed, dark-haired heartthrob on the street, you’d probably assume he was just a regular American dude.
But 21-year-old Jaimie Wilson was born a girl and has defied his very conservative family to be his true self.
In 2015, Jaimie made the brave decision to start transitioning from female to male – after hiding his pain for four years.
Now a musician living in Florida, Jaimie is an inspiration to many people who may be struggling with revealing their identity.
He recently shared snaps with his 350,000 Instagram followers that prove not everyone show outward ‘signs’ before their transition.
In the before and after images, Jaimie highlights that not every trans-person’s journey is the same.
And while he’s lost loved ones in his struggle to be himself, we think he’s inspirational!
