Name: Riinu Birthday: May 24th Struggles with Gender Identity Disorder (FTM): Riinu was born with a male heart but a female body. Since childhood, he felt a strong sense of wrongness regarding his body, carrying a deep sense of loneliness and suffering, constantly wondering, "Why wasn't I born a boy?" Conflict with Family: When he came out about his gender identity to his mother—the person he wanted understanding from the most—he was met with rejection and painful words. Deeply hurt by his family relationships, he was once so isolated that he resolved to cut ties with them. Financial Hardship and Surgery in His Teens: At age 19, to become independent without relying on his parents, he worked desperately at part-time jobs to earn hundreds of thousands of yen. He spent his days pushed to his physical and mental limits, even planning his top surgery (mastectomy) in secret from his parents. Days of Losing the Meaning of Life: In the past, he experienced such despair that he lost his sense of purpose, tormented by thoughts like "I wish I had never been born" and "I'm the black sheep of the family."
