ROAD LESS TRAVELED

Many times I traveled on roads not many, if any, have trekked.  Sometimes, I have no choice. Other times. I went against prevailing conventions. Just like life, I needed to chart my own course. 

Folks may not understand why I chose this direction but it's the road that I must travel. I became a born again Christian in the 1970s and transitioned in 2005. Two totally different roads which have tremendously impacted my life.

I have tended to go on the offbeat track. I am quirky at times, like weird people and activities. Looking back these things were part of my life course. Looking ahead, I'm seeking more paths that have never been trekked.

I wonder what more we could have discovered if Magnus Hirschfeld's work had survived the Nazi purge

 I read the first book. The top book is the 2nd edition.

A CROSSDRESSER SHOWED ME HOW TO LIVE MY TRUTH

 I was riding the subway to work when I saw a woman talking with a man dressed in a woman's pants suit. A handbag hung on her forearm. I was repulsed by this person. This happened in 1993, several years before my gender issues troubled me.

I long believed that men shouldn't wear wear clothing of the opposite sex. What I remembered most was that she was comfortable in her surroundings. That picture stayed with me with me for several years. 

When I came out as a crossdresser in 2005 it was a life changing event. It took me over a year before I felt comfortable in my own skin. Like the person on the subway on that day in 1993 I was out and happy. If I saw her today, I would thank her for living her truth.
