Deep Down, My Mom Had

There's A Gender In Your Brain And A Gender In Your Body. For 99 Percent Of People, Those Things Are In Alignment. For Transgender People, They're Mismatched. That's All It Is. It's Not Complicated, It's Not A Neurosis. It's A Mix-up. It's A Birth Defect, Like A Cleft Palate.

Obviously The Transgender Movement Has Not Progressed In The Way That The Gay And Lesbian Movement Has. But Im An Activist - Thats Just The Kind Of Person I Am.

I Want To Create A Place Where Trans People And Our Allies Could Come Together To Share Experiences, Information And Ideas. Being Transgender Or Loving Someone Who Is Transgender Can Be Challenging In Our Society And I Hope That Members Of This Site Will Also Use This Space As A Place To Support And Encourage Each Other. Together, We Can Strengthen Our Community And Open The Hearts And Minds Of Others.

Deep Down, My Mom Had Long Suspected I Was Gay... Much Of Her Anger And Hurt Came From Her Sense Of Betrayal That She Was The Last To Be Told.

Around 2001, I Started Analyzing Lesbians. I Started To Realize That Even Really Butch-acting Or -dressing Women Still Had A Strong Female Identity That I Never Had.
