Work Description

This booklet provides information on the social and psychic affects of transitioning legally, physically, emotionally, sexually, and socially. – Digital Transgender Archive.

Much has changed since I wrote this series of booklets in the early 1990’s. Not only have I become older and hopefully wiser, but there has been a revolution in the way gender identity issues are viewed. The term “gender dysphoria,” with its implication of mental illness, does not accurately describe the transgender process for all of us, and for most of us, we are only dysphoric for a relatively short time. Someone who has come to terms with who or what they are, whether they crossdress on occasion, or whether they have transitioned and live full time in the new gender role, with or without surgery, is hardly dysphoric.
One day I will re-write this booklet, but as there is much to do and little time to do it, and since, I believe, it remains a useful tool for those looking into their issues with gender identity, please excuse me if I give other projects higher priority. – Dallas Denny, 1996.
