Q: "What are the most difficult, and best, things for you about being transgender?"
A: "The tough stuff first. There are always issues when Amanda is involved. It's often difficult to lead the three lives that many of us do. I am a husband and father first, a glamour girl second. The woman in me is totally intertwined with the other two. The good stuff. The wonderful people I've met. My friends! The rush of wearing a great new dress for the first time. The feeling of ease that comes with acceptance. The elation of moving through the world as the woman I've always dreamed I could be. Wherever you are at on the spectrum, please, be good to yourself, and live life to it's fullest!"
