I've decided to start a new series called "Adventures in Transitioning". Much has changed since Jedi-mouse's last entry (which I apologize for) and I feel that the current media interest in the topic of transgender lives should be expounded upon for all it's worth. You already know, if you've read any Jedi-mouse rantings, that I speak from the "I". I do not profess in any way to be the truth for all transfolk. It is true, however, that for each generation, the stories of transitioning are quite similar, and often "textbook" in their likeness. Being a child of the '50's and '60's and transitioning late in life, I am Bornstein, Boylan, and now Jenner and so many others. Those of us who lived most of our lives in denial have a story far different from those who are now transitioning at such a young age with the acceptance of family, the medical establishment and step by little step from our society itself. A few years ago I tried to write a bio of my entire life experience and even posted one segment in the Jedi-mouse blog. This didn't work so well for me as a cathartic or freeing experience as I ended up in a heap of tears night after night recalling the trauma of growing up as me. This time I'll try to be more "episode" minded in how I present my saga. I'll go into my early dreams, the angel who lived in my head and how I learned to survive my own insanity. Stay tuned.
