Would you believe this model was born a man?

Philippines model & activist Geena Rocero has one of the best bodies in the modeling business. Rocero shared her story of growing up in as a "boy", becoming a fashion model, and coming out to the world.

In March 2014, Geena said...
Today, this very moment, is my real coming out, I could no longer live my truth for and by myself. I want to do my best to help others live their truth without shame and terror. I am here, exposed, so that one day there will never be a need for a November 20th vigil. My deepest truth allowed me to accept who I am. Will you?

All of us are put in boxes by our families, by our religion, by the society, by history. For the last 9 years, some of my neighbours, friends, colleagues and even my agent did not know I was born male. Because of my success I was scared to reveal this.
Rocero changed her gender in Thailand when she was 19 years old.

The transgender model has launched Gender Proud, which is billed as an "advocacy & awareness campaign that aims to advance the rights of all transgender individuals. Check out more photos and watch her tells story after the cut...
