Patient is a Verb

T0496563005
Welcome to the waiting room to enter the realm of Transition*. You are the 11,174th player. Only 33 players have made it through Level One this month. The waiting list to see the Gender Identity Clinic is now 5 years long. Patient for trans people is often an adjective and not a noun, the endurance of suffering without receiving treatment. Yet our systems primarily expect trans people to move through life as a patient - subjects to medical scrutiny and approval. What does a duration of 5 years really mean, and when does patience turn from virtue to verb?
