The book presents oral histories of the transvestites and transsexuals of Singapore. Oooooh, I love men! "Homo", "Ah Qua", "Bapok"; the transvestites and transsexuals of Singapore have long been a much maligned and misunderstood section of our society. But through the experiences of lascivious prostitutes, effeminate national servicemen, the pansy undergraduate - characters – which we recognise in life the masks of mascara and frivolity are stripped bare to expose their innermost feelings and private lives. And there has been much to share...
From the first stirring realisations of adolescent lust; the shock and guilt of sexual desires; the pain following insults, abuse, and rejection; the terrifying dilemma of a sex-change operation to the ecstasy of marriage, we are plunged into the helter-skelter world of the "sisters". In Sisterhood: The Untold Story, Joash Moo shatters the prejudices and taboos of our AIDS-mania age in an honest, never-before revealed peek at the exaggerated swing of the bottom, the generous bosoms, and the girlish mannerisms. Sisterhood is a collection of true stories, based either on interviews or actual persons known to the author.
