My Husband Betty by Helen Boyd
Author Helen Boyd is a happily married woman whose husband enjoys sharing her wardrobe - and she has written the first book on transgendered men to focus on their relationships. Traditionally known as cross-dressers, transvestites, or drag queens, men like Helen's husband are a diverse lot who don't always conform to stereotype. Helen addresses every imaginable question concerning the probable and improbable reasons for behavior that still baffle not only mental health professionals but the practitioners themselves; the taxonomy of the transgendered and the distinct but overlapping societies of each group; coming out; bisexuality, and homophobia.My Husband Betty, a finalist for a Lambda Literary Award, was written by Helen Boyd. Her blog, (en)gender, is a gender and trans diary that attracts a large following of people interested in queer, trans, and gender problems and politics. Betty, her companion, and she live in Brooklyn.
