I was surfing around the web one day and came across a website called Trans Success, that said
How does one balance gender, work and life when there is ongoing conflict within? Can choosing your gender bring happiness? Or is it contentedness?
Through the years I have had occasion to deal with this question, both in theory and practice, and the results were inspiring. As some of you may know, I began life -- like many of you -- as what I interpreted as a closet cross-dresser, compelled by some fetishistic force I could neither adequately comprehend, explain, nor balance.
While in India I've once again turned my thoughts to spirituality, and been assessing any correlations it has with being trans. It was my shift in consciousness and my world view in 2000-2001 that helped me find my own self acceptance.
Many transgender women assert that there is no connection between gender, sex and sexual orientation. I disagree.
Growing up in Brooklyn, New York during the 1960s, the term “sissy” had a much different meaning than it does today.
Where do you fall on that spectrum?
