Full title: "Trans History: A Historic Reference Collective of Transgender Events" by Tess de Carlo.
"What is transsexualism? Some estimates suggest that as many as 1 in 4,500 males may be transsexual and 1 in 8,000 females. Transsexualism is most commonly defined as the desire to live as the opposite sex accompanied by a wish to change the body to that preferred sex through surgery or hormone therapy.
The term was coined in the middle of the 20th Century, but there are many references to the phenomenon throughout history - from Ancient Greek mythology to Roman times. Anthropologists have found instances of transsexualism in most societies and cultures, including Native American tribes such as the Navajo who have words in their own language for transsexual men and women."
Tess de Carlo is a transgender woman and activist. She resides in Chattanooga, TN, being a wife and mother of an adopted son. She is the owner/operator of the BEARDED LADY' electrolysis salon as well as an advocate and active member of the transgender community. She holds a license in nursing and cosmetology."
