My first conscious thought of 'I should be like that and not like this' was probably at about six, and I was playing with... I have a twin brother, and we were playing with our twin cousins, who are a boy and a girl.

In the first couple of years when you're transitioning you don't really fit into any gender, because you're changing over. You have to start getting electrolysis before you even start your therapy. But I think all the weird looks help to give you conviction in who you really are.
love notices
I love New York! You walk around, nobody notices you, you don't notice anybody, you're in your own little world.
calling everybody great history knowing nobody prepared scripts sure
There have been actresses who transitioned and nobody knew. But for me, with everybody knowing my history, it will be harder. I'm sure there are some great scripts calling for an ultra-glamorous woman. And I'm prepared to be ultra-glamorous.

parent way world
My parents, Gary and Patricia, let me be in my world. They never told me what I couldnt do. It helped me adapt in a positive way.
