Lynn speaks with Dr. Cameron Bowman, the only trained sexual reassignment surgeon in Western Canada, currently residing in B.C. Lynn also interviews BC's Chief Surgical Assessor who discusses what it means to be transgendered, what's involved in 'getting ready' for transition and how attitudes towards transgendered individuals have changed over the years. Lynn also speaks with Cadence Matthews, a maleāto-female (MTF) woman in her twenties who told her parents when she was five that she was a girl. Cadence has had recent SRS surgery, and has more booked this month, and shares her story.
