That Transexual Guy
An Introduction to The Link's First Trans Column
Oliver Leon — September 5, 2011

To the alarm of my parents, I am a transsexual.
I am on the female-to-male spectrum of this gender brouhaha but I have never once identified as female. I just went along with the label until I could no longer handle the mess that was my unconscious.
In January 2010, I started exploring gender, using a neutral nickname and being read more and more as male. I liked it a lot. It felt right. On July 15th 2010, I came out to myself as transsexual.
