TRANS HUMANITY
A change of gender involves much more than just changes to a person's appearance and behavior. Looking beyond these surface elements, Donna Rose discusses some of the more universally human elements of a gender transition, as revealed in her new memoir, "Wrapped in Blue: a Journey of Discovery." A former world-class college athlete, Donna has become a noted speaker, educator and advocate for transgender and diversity issues.
"One of the difficulties we have
in a transition isn't just this gigantic leap
across the gender line,
it's releasing ourselves from this cocoon of expectations
and of
obligations that we've spent a lifetime building for
ourselves"
-- Donna Rose
