Tranifesto

About the Book

Tranifesto is an exploration of gender, sexuality, body image and personal identity as seen through the eyes of a middle-aged, middle-income, middle-western, middle-of-the-road female-to-male transsexual. In this collection of columns, essays and observations, the author examines his own journey through the gender reassignment process and his sometimes humorous and sometimes humiliating attempt to forge a place for himself in the world before, during and after transition.
