"Welcome to Shauna's...the most wondrous place to be."
DO YOU REALLY THINK YOU KNOW ME?
I was known for being a prankster, someone who could make you laugh by telling a joke, you would never know if I was serious or not..
THIS TIME I AM SERIOUS!
Imagine the person whom you have known all your life, or someone you know at school, work or out shopping with. Full of life and seemed to be so happy Actually the cover works well, I had done it for so long that no one could tell I was truly depressed.
An emotional breakdown happened once and another was on it's way.
The question I now ask to all is what would you do if a friend or family member came up to you, or you found out that the person you have known a long time was someone else? That he was a she and was sharing a body and didn't know what to do about it? I have always said, I have two souls sharing one body, am I so different than you?
Would you not like this person anymore? Or would you hurt her/him because s/he was different??? I ask you this, the outer shell changed so does that mean you don't like this person anymore?
To be stealth is a protection I have perfected for 35 years.
Because I was beat up and for being different, but hiding is an option and many others do it.
You need to ask yourself that question because many men and women are out there dealing with this same issue, not just myself but countless others. I am here to tell the world they need to understand we are all HUMAN and to help one another because we are all born just like you but with gender dysphoria and /or Intersex.

I have been asked many times why NOW, "you have everything a man could want at your time in your life." I would give up on my whole world just to be happy for just one minute. "I WOULD RATHER DIE HAPPY THAN HAVE TO LIVE MISERABLY!"

My site is all about people of Intersex and Transgender experiences, mine and others too. When I started out I had a lot of questions and I always looked for resources that spoke from the heart and experience. Sure, there's the surgery, the hormones, the legal changes. But what about the thought process,how does it affect families, and how is life really like on the other side?
So after some time I put this site together for myself which helped me to come out to everyone. Then I dedicate it to people like me and started giving information for all the world to view so people wouldn't judge us for our mishap no longer.

Thirty five years ago a young boy discovered he was actually a girl, puberty came up with a surprise that would change his/her life completely. Born different yet
no one knew except the Doctor and his mother that he was Ovotestes (www.isna.org/faq/conditions/ovo-testes). How to learn about me you will need to read my BLOG.

I love women and it will be a special woman who gets my heart♥
I just want all of you to know that I am in this for myself,(not dressing up and wearing makeup and god knows all the misery and pain I have to go through), this is about who I am supposed to be. ♥I am a wonderful person with a heart of gold as I am told, whether I am an transsexual or just the person you have known ♥ Just knowing who I am,♥ I love it.
NO MORE LIVING TWO LIVES WITH TWO WARDDROBES
MY SEXUAL PREFERENCE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY BEING A WOMAN
If you see a Beautiful Brunette driving a pickup truck wave at her, it may be me....
"INTERSEX" is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male. For example, a person might be born appearing to be female on the outside, but having mostly male-typical anatomy on the inside. Or a person may be born with genitals that seem to be in-between the usual male and female types—for example, a girl may be born with a noticeably large clitoris, or lacking a vaginal opening, or a boy may be born with a notably small penis, or with a scrotum that is divided so that it has formed more like labia. Or a person may be born with mosaic genetics, so that some of her cells have XX chromosomes and some of them have XY. Though we speak of intersex as an inborn condition, intersex anatomy doesn’t always show up at birth. Sometimes a person isn’t found to have intersex anatomy until she or he reaches the age of puberty, or finds himself an infertile adult, or dies of old age and is autopsied. Some people live and die with intersex anatomy without anyone (including themselves) ever knowing.
"Gender dysphoria", an intense feeling of pain, anguish, and anxiety from the mis-assignment of a transgendered person's sex at birth. All transgendered people suffer from it, but the feeling becomes more acute for transsexuals and transgenderists, usually in the middle of their lives. These feelings lead many transgendered people into depression, anxiety, chemical dependencies, divorces and other family problems, even suicide. In order to seek relief from their gender dysphoria, transsexual and transgenderist persons transition, or to begin living their lives in their true genders, which are opposite their birth sexes. This means they literally must "out" themselves to their employers, their families, their friends, everyone."

So before you try to judge me, Can you walk in my shoes day in and day out?..Can you stay hidden and still be sane afterwards?..
Ask yourself this before you judge me.

How stupid had I become thinking since I was completely out to my family and friends, I was "OUT".
That isn't what out is, and I am now aware I am only part time which is upsetting.
I guess looking now at the situation at hand there is 2 types of out, one is letting everyone know you are either gay, lesbian, bi, or trans. While there are girls and boys living in the world as that out gender. Unlike myself I am out as a transsexual woman but I am living part time as my male self. I do not wear makeup, all the time or accessories. I haven't worn dresses or skirts, not even a pant suit only low rise female jeans and tunics, sweaters or sweatshirts. I do wear the appropriate attire when I do speakings and speeches.
Even though my wardrobe is all female, I have no male clothes, maybe men shoes but I wear female attire 24 hours a day, hair is in feminine style, everything I have in my life now is feminine. I apply makeup once in awhile.
I live full time as a female but I am not completely out. Employers and clients do not know of Shauna, my grandmother doesn't know as well as a couple neighbors.
I am so embarrassed for thinking I was completely out, how could I be so naive and not realize this. One of my straight friends pointed it out that I was still male even though I dressed in female jeans and tops which made me upset, felt foolish and then I cried.
How did I fool myself into thinking this?
Then I realized what I did, you see I have been rushing, rushing into being the woman in me for so many years, wanting so badly to be her and this has got to stop. I have a set date on living full time, the same time my name changes legally to Shauna. I had said in the beginning of my transition I would take my time, take each step like it was my first to experience life all over again as my true self.
With each visit to electrolysis (E) I am shedding all unwanted hair that seems to grow now, after all the years I am growing hair in places that never had hair so I am having it taken out forever. The hormones are helping to achieve what my natural hormones did not produce and it is such a wonderful sensation to feel my breasts growing though painful when bumped but all in all nature is developing me slowly into her. As my hair grows out on to my shoulders, I haven't worn my hair long in over 25 years. Pinning it back while reading or washing my face, or the constant pushing it back. I now am aware all the exciting things that are set forth in my life.
I am constantly worrying that my weight is all wrong, dieting to achieve the ideal weight has had me on tantrums of despair because it rises from no activity, though I watch what I consume it doesn't change the fact that I am still gaining weight. I have to use the gym more often and quit being a lazy Shawn.
This isn't fun and games, this is for real. I am totally changing my life from the inside out, and continuing to watch my health in this whole process, I can not afford to get ill anymore while in transition.
As I move forward in my baby steps to becoming a full time woman, I am achieving the greatest gift from all of this, I am being taught finally to be a woman slowly and in a mature way where dressing isn't like a twenty something year old. Funny how I had to change my thinking on dressing, everyday I must wear a bra so not to accidentally hit one of them which would cause stars to appear and a painful jolt of reality that I screwed up.
I spoke to my sister and explained I was frighten of what people would say to me being out, and she gave me a welcome call by stating"You should not worry of what people think, you need to think about your happiness and not everyone else around you, they will adjust!" She is right!
So today I am going window shopping as my female self with my straight male friend and just live life for me even if I am part time!
Who I'd like to meet: How do we know the correct gender of a child with an intersex condition?
We won't know the child's gender until she or he is old enough to communicate to us. It is recommended that the child be assigned a gender based on our best prediction, and allow her or him to determine for herself or himself once she or he is old enough to do so. Irreversible surgeries on infants should be avoided in order to give them the widest range of choices when they are older. Performing surgeries will not eliminate the possibility that our prediction is wrong.
This isn't about who we are, it is about WHY WE DO IT

I would love to meet others like myself, who have chosen to become the person they were supposed to be.
I'd like to meet WOMEN (Genuine Girls), IS, TS, CD, or TG anywhere for friendship.
THIS SITE IS FOR CHILDREN♥♥♥

THIS LADY KNOWS HER STUFF CONCERNING TRANSGENDER SO CHECK HER OUT http://abidel.ca/passing.html
I came into the world the first on 14th of August 1961 as an infant and then 9th of April 2008 as my true self, not a man in drag which some may think, I realized at that moment with the wind in my hair that this is where I belong, it was so overwhelming that I had to sit to catch my breath and wipe the tears of joy from my eyes. I knew then, I was home!

ITPeople.org exists to provide resources and build a safer and more educated environment in mainstream society for intersexed and transgendered people.
Transgender is an inclusive term describing ALL persons including transsexuals within this society. Transsexuals seek to live full time in the corrected gender role, usually with hormone therapy, name change and gender identification correction on documents and the option of surgical interventions.

“Your body is in direct contradiction to what your insides say. You may have a male body, but inside you are female, you may have a female body, but inside you are male, or like myself be combined male and female, inside and outside this is intersex”
