I debated whether I should post this or not. Some might think it is too personal and others that it is too in your face. But, I think that you post these questions just for those reasons and that you want a wide cross section of answers, so you left as the saying goes, ìThe barn door wide open.î...........

Q1: Who? Diana L.

Q2: What? I am a Trans___ual (unfortunately, the program censored me from using a certain word).

Q3: When? All my life, some of my earliest memories deal with the fact that I knew I was different; it just took fifty-one years to admit it to myself.

Q4: Where? Just about everywhere, except some of my family (my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews and niece know, but my cousins do not know) and work (I have only three or fours years before I retire).

Q5: Why? Oh, thatís the $64,000 question, if only we knew. The current medical thinking is that it is a hormone imbalance during pregnancy or that it is genetic (it does seem to show a very small correlation that it may run in families). I think in my case it maybe a hormone imbalance, because I know that between the time my brother was born and me, my mother has several miscarriages. The preferred treatment at that time was to give the mother DES which is a form of estrogen (what do you think that it would do for a male fetus?). And, for a female fetus it is even worst, all types of cancers that affect the reproductive systems. When I talked to my mother about it one time (she never knew that I was trans.) she said that they gave her some type of medication but she didnít know what it was.

1. San Antonio Spurs.

2. 2005 NBA Champions.

3. Crowned last night.

4. San Antonio, Texas (close to the River Walk).

5. Because my Brother willed it (he's a huge Tim Duncan fan), and because the Detroit Pistons blew it (sadly).

(1) The Wife and I.

(2) "The First 48" on A&E, which I usually mistakenly call "48 Hours".

(3) On the couches around our too-small TV.

(4) Thursdays at 9 EST.

(5a) Because I need more than one "Cops" fix per week.

(5b) Court TV broadcasts "Cops" when I'm putting the kids to bed, so I miss it.

(5c) It lacks the over-the-top narration of "Cold Case Files"

(5d) Because I'm an A&E junkie.

(5e) I'm SO sorry.
