Hello Stana!
I'm a 33-year-old transwoman and a long time reader of your site. I've very much enjoyed seeing the photos and reading the stories you've shared from your readers and so I thought that I might share my favorite photo of me with you and the world.
The photo was taken in 2000 when I was about 18-years-old or so. I was still very much in the closet, but I had just come out to my sister and she insisted on giving me a makeover and doing a photo shoot. The attached photo was definitely the best of the bunch and remains one of my favorite photos of myself to this day.
Unfortunately I wasn't strong enough or brave enough to come out to the world back then. It wasn't until just a few years ago that I finally fully accepted myself and began my transition. I will be debuting my newest self to the world at my brother's upcoming wedding and will hopefully have some new photos to call my favorites!
Allison
Got selfies? My open invitation to post your favorite photo along with the story behind it and the reason it is your favorite photo still stands, so don't be shy, send me your fave foto. ― Stana

Best Wishes at the wedding Allison! Smile and Keep your head high. Don't let a narrow-minded few people get you down.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, the Halston Heritage gown above .... WOW! I hope it doesn't cost too much because I'd love to add it to my wardrobe, but I'm going to have to have my wife alter it a bit because, unlike Stana and some of you other girls, I don't have the assets to do it the justice it deserves! Oh well.
