If
you are looking for the Annette from Arizona,
she is no
longer at this site; she gave up this domain. Her whereabouts
are unknown. This domain is now owned me, Romana
Annette, a person who is woman-identified and transexually-oriented:
a transwoman. I am extremely
transgendered, because
my brain is wired that way, but
there are many stereotypical things that I am not. I
am not a Woman Trapped in a Man's Body,
or alternately, a Man Trapped in a Man's Body,
and I am not female-identified.
I am not trapped in my body; I am trapped in a
culture that assigns a near
cosmic importance to flawed concepts of sex and gender
and demands that I be someone that I am not. I
am not pushy or militant, which means I must continually
fight to be taken seriously, and to resist being
relegated to trivial transgender
categories.
This web site strives to improve
the civil rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and (with
an emphasis on) transgender persons through Support,
Education, and Advocacy, particularly in
the Pacific Northwest. This is also a couples-oriented
website, with much emphasis on couples' issues in the
transgendered world. We also host one of the meeting
places for Tri-ESS members in the Puget Sound area.
