A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Regitze Falk - Det gyldne menneske

Original title: "Det gyldne menneske" (The Golden Man) bt Regitze Falk.

"Under the name Regitze Falk, Toni Mygdal-Meyer wrote the book about what it was like at the age of 40 to openly step out into the world as a transvestite and about living an everyday life as a lesbian husband with a wife and daughter.

Regitze Falk steps out into the world – fully clothed and with perfect make-up – at forty-some. Until then, she wore only men's clothing and a male name. She is married and the father of a daughter and feels good about it. Her book about this late birth is a step-by-step, almost day-by-day description of what it's like to come out of the closet as a transvestite. The first trip to the city in big scrub, the first coming out to family, friends, and acquaintances. The first run gauntlet – on high unsafe heels – between truck drivers on the Storebælt ferry. All the many different wild and mad episodes, the misunderstandings, the comedy and the good surprises. Perhaps especially the latter, because Regitze Falk's book is neither fierce defense nor attack.
