Age and moment

Rhona McCloud's picture

Circumstances mean I will not get to see this series Ang but I hold out hopes that it will be of a quality that allows my family and friends to imagine what it was like to transition 40 years ago - something I suspect they have never considered justifying their attitudes by saying that it was always obvious I was female. From my point of view they, however misguidedly, treated me as male until I said enough!!!

Transitions

I can't imagine what it would have been like 40 years ago. In my narrow little homophobic world of that time, many were murdered without it even making the news. I did not even know what trans was, though looking back, like many I did know something was a bit off.
