Movie: Some of My Best Friends Are...
Pre-Maude Rue McClanahan as a rich barfly surrounded by adoring men. Pre-Andy-from-WKRP Gary Sandy as a self-loathing male hustler. Pre-Buck Rogers Gil Gerard as a gay airline pilot in love.

When my son first started saying that he was actually a she, I went looking for information. I wanted hard numbers. I wanted data. I wanted science to tell me to do. This is what I discovered.

When he was three years old, my son informed me that she was actually my daughter. I'm now the mother of a happy, confident little transgender girl, but it took a while to get here.
