With more female-to-male transitions, long-held perceptions of what it means to be a Transgender are no longer valid.

(Bala Cynwyd, PA)  Time was when the conventional image of a transgender individual was that of a man dressing as a woman.  Inaccurate as that image was, the popular definition or concept of the transgender person was more sexual-based than biological.  It was thought that the underlying motivation behind being transgender could range from homosexuality to perversion and was the province largely of males.
