Coming Out as Transgender in a Small Town

What is it like to be transgender in a small town? What is it like to be the parent of a transgender person in a community where everyone knows you? There's no hiding in a small town. Everyone knows your family, your neighbors, your friends, and everything about you.  Joe and Rya open up about the preconceived notions they harbored about what it would be like in town prior to Rya's transition. They explore the dramatic differences between expectations and reality, as well as a few unexpected surprises.
