When I was 14, I had my only brush with being found out. My Dad and I lived in a townhouse complex across the street from my junior high school. This was very convenient for me, as I’d often come home at lunch, often with several school friends. I rarely had to take a lunch …
Today I got the best email I have ever gotten. It was from my Dad, and it was his response to me telling him that I was transsexual not bi-gendered. This is what he wrote: (some minor editing on my part for readability – re-edited since it somehow got worse to read) Hi Jessica, Sorry …
My wife, Teresa is an amazing woman. She doesn’t see it but everyone else does. Her support for Jessica over the last 10 years has helped me cope and make it this far. Now, even when she needs so much support herself, she still finds it in her to hold me while I have one …
One thing I’ve been a bit slow to do since my realization of self, is to tell my parents. To this point, I’ve only told my Mom – and just finished writing the letter to Dad. Teresa is just reading it before I send it. My Mom took the news extremely well. Her response was …
Going forward, the wife and I are committed to each other, and committed to getting through this together. She already misses my scruff. The stubble that has plagued me ever since facial hair sprouted. I have NEVER liked any of the hair I got at puberty. I detest body hair. I hate facial hair. My …
“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” – William Shakespeare Who I am has not fundamentally changed, yet changed I am. James (the protector part) is not going away, he’s just changing. I still need protection. The world is still out there. The process I’m going through is not easy. He will …
After that second therapy session, I’d had some correspondence with a few people, and was being questioned on a few things. I was getting told that these friends and family had no idea who ‘Jessica’ was. My instant reaction to that was, “how could you not know her? She’s always been here.” Every time it …
I have never, ever, wanted therapy, nor will I ever. I used to say that. I used to say it a lot. During my coming out, I wanted to start therapy. I’ve had it suggested to me many times, that I should get some therapy about the cross dressing, or whatever gender issues I may …
When I first started telling friends about Jessica, I was starting to feel really good about the relief of more and more people knowing. This was maybe 13 years ago. I was building a support system, and I wasn’t having any bad reactions. It was addictive. I reasoned, that I should tell everyone I knew. …
The wife and I have had one hiccup in our entire relationship, and it happened the night after Yanni. <dramatic pause> She broke up with me. W T F? We had had a great date, cuddled the entire concert, took transit back to near her place, and walked to a Boston Pizza where we stayed …
