Out-and-Proud Transsexual

Cuba's first male-to-female transsexual is Mavi Suzell, a stout yet handsome woman who seems very comfortable with her identity and her place in gay Cuban history. The 50-year-old Suzell said that her operation on May 22, 1988, not only changed her sexual identity but her life as well.

"Before my procedure, I suffered a lot emotionally," declares Suzell. "Now I am fully accepted as I was not before. I have the admiration of people who before didn't understand what I was all about."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
