The Love Story of Elizabeth, Her Transman Deen and Their Parents
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/betwa-sharma/love-story-of-elizabeth-t_b_784619.htmlIn college, Elizabeth Clark fell in love with a very butch woman, but only a few years later her lover wanted to live as a man.
This posed a dilemma for Elizabeth, because Deen's physical transformation could strip away her queer identity. The girl-girl couple would look like a girl-boy couple.
"It was hard at times," she said. "As he was coming more into himself, I felt like I was losing something... my queerness became invisible to other people."
