This page contains links to other transsexual resource and support websites. However, please bear in mind that I can’t
in any way be held responsible for the content in the websites of other people or organizations. The website guidelines I
have listed below are based on my own sometimes-limited experience as a visitor and in some cases on personal contacts. I
hope that you will find these links and contacts useful in the same way as I have.
Guidance and Support
If you in
one way or another find yourself facing transsexualism you most certainly are in need of guidance and support. I have always
considered myself an independent person able to take care of myself, but without guidance and support from others (you people
out there), I don't think I would have survived. Changing sex is not something you do for fun or a sexual kick; this is a
very serious matter, and if you do this for the wrong reasons you might find yourself ending up in the wrong gender, and I
can assure you that living in the wrong gender is no game. It’s very destructive and it’s a deadly serious condition.
There
are many websites that provide guidance and support for transsexual people, and there is no way I can list them all. So I
will put forward only a few that I myself have had experience with to get you started in finding your way.
Dr. Richard Curtis http://www.transhealth.co.ukTranshealth is an English clinic based in central London. They provide comprehensive healthcare to gender dysphoric, gender
variant, transvestite, trans-gendered and transsexual people. I have been to the London clinic where I met Dr. Curtis, and
I have from the start felt very confident in their work and comforted by all the friendliness they have shown me. Having been
confronted with the so-called Swedish healthcare, I find England to be quite different. Dr. Curtis provides healthcare where
the Swedish healthcare system completely fails, and there is actually a life-and-death difference.
If you ever
feel stuck in your process or have lost confidence in the people supposedly helping you, you should consider a second opinion
regardless of money and country borders. Your life is too important to waste on people harming you.
Dr. Douglas Ousterhout http://www.drdouglasousterhout.comDr. Ousterhout performs facial feminization surgery (FFS) and breast augmentation. I have had the honor to meet him and
his staff Mira and Tatiana and other people working with him, such as Mary-Lou and Tricia at the Cocoon house. In all, he
and his staff are highly recommended.
Dr. Toby Meltzer http://www.tmeltzer.comDr. Meltzer performs male-to-female sex reassignment surgery (MTF SRS) and female-to-male sex reassignment surgery (FTM
SRS) along with cosmetic procedures related to those surgeries and cosmetic procedures for non-SRS patients. I have had the
honor to meet Dr. Meltzer too and in all, he and his staff are highly recommended.
Dr. Samir G. Ayoub http://www.sanfranciscoaestheticdentistry.com Okay! This doctor I have had the pleasure to meet too. However, Dr. Ayoub does teeth, and what has that to do with transsexualism
and changing gender, you may ask? My very simple answer is everything. He is highly recommended, and he has shown me that
there is another dimension to dentistry, a higher level of skill and understanding, and Dr. Ayoub most certainly represents
that.
Deep Stealth Productionshttp://www.deepstealth.comThis Deep Stealth Productions website contains links to other websites and transgender resources, and it’s a good
way to start and to meet two extraordinary people. I haven’t met Andrea James or Calpernia Addams in person, but they
have inspired me in writing and have assisted me in many ways, and they are partly to be credited for what I try to do here.
(If you don’t like my site or writing, please don’t blame them; any complaints are strictly for me.) What they
are doing to create awareness and provide assistance to transsexual people does make a difference. I also would like to add
my deepest respect for their approach to the subject.
Lynn Conwayhttp://www.lynnconway.comThis website is special in many ways. Lynn Conway is a Computer Scientist, Electrical Engineer, Inventor, Research Manager,
and Engineering Educator. I haven’t met Lynn, but by reading her website I feel that I know her anyway, and she deserves
my greatest respect as a person and for what she has done and is continuing to do. Lynn’s website has evolved into a
major informational and support source for transgender and transsexual people and is well worth visiting.
Among other useful things on this website is Lynn’s very important investigative report ”
Prevalence of Transsexualism” that shows that the prevalence of transsexualism (Male to Female) most probably is no less than 1 of 500.
This report does shed light on how common this phenomenon of transsexualism in fact is. One of the scary parts in this
report is that it also reveals how scientists many times deliberately try to keep us away from the truth, and a justified
question is “Why”?
TransPonderhttp://www.trans-ponder.com and their online shop
http://shop.trans-ponder.comTransPonder Media International is a social enterprise that features the media, products, and creative talent of the transgender
community. Since 2007 Transponder has provided resources to the community, including audio programs, a community forum,
and regular news updates. TransPonder Media International is now expanding to provide distribution support for creative
talent, and producing new and innovative media to bring a positive message about the trans-community to the world at large.
You will find me in their forum at Li Sam’s Place and Spouse Support. You are very much welcome to join me and
many other forum members mingling there. I’m particularly happy about TransPonder’s initiative to open Spouse
Support, as I think we need to attend to these kinds of issues and deal with them much more in the future.
