Finding Love as a Trans Woman
<p>Throughout my life, I have gone through three significant evolutions of fear. My first fear was, as a child, being caught wearing my mother’s clothes. I was. I was unpunished. The second was coming out to my then-wife. I did. I was punished. My current fear is dating.</p>
<p>I didn’t date. I saw no appeal in the various ways people date. The awkwardness of sitting opposite someone who, in their mind, is trying to notice all the tell-tale signs of my transsexuality is too much to bear.</p>
<p>The fetishisation. The endless conversations about my vagina. The disbelief when I tell them that I don’t have a penis.</p>
