I've had the opportunity to know no less than three transgender people so far in life, and in every case, their gender stuff was the least interesting thing about them. One was a doctor in sociology, which I thought was way interesting. Another was a professional skydiving instructor, and took on my first airborne adventure. The third is an author I admire very much, and whose work I enjoy reading. I value my relationships with them because they're cool people. I couldn't care less about the particulars of their gender transformation.
