    Thumbs up Crossdressing Professor

    Hi, Below is a link to an article that appeared in the local paper about a Professor at a major University that goes to work dressed.

    Way to go is all I can say.

    Hi,
    I had a full Professor who was my instructor for a post graduate mathematics course that was a REAL TRANSEXUAL, ie...post-op. She was very open about it (quite attractive) and married to a man. This was at the Univ. of Michigan (immensely liberal school) about 30+ years ago. She was also the Asst Chair of the Dept and a brilliant instructor.
    Take Care,
    Andi ...

    I could see teaching a corporate law class on sexual discrimination or harassment while dressed in a black business suit, white blouse, pearls, and heels. With the right topic and the right timing, it would work in a college setting.

    Miqqi Alicia's an interesting character. Her homepage is well worth a look.

    Lynn Conway is a TS pioneer who is Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Emerita at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan.

    Great thread, The article was well written and objective. I would be tempted to dress much more often.

    Sure wish we had more "role models" like that! It's going to take a lot more person's like Miqqi, pushing back the boundaries.

    Maybe someday we will find acceptance, not just on a liberal campus, Maybe at The Truckstop too!

    Peace and Love, Joanie

    Hopefully the brave people like that will continue to open doors and minds of acceptance for the rest of us.
    Staying in the closet isn't so bad as long as you know why your in there.

    Jennifer Finney Boylan is/was a full fledged TS (now a woman) professor at Colby, a liberal arts college in Maine. Incidentally, her book, "She's Not There" is a great read.

    Thanks Billiejo. Here is the link to the transgender professor probably being fired in southern Michigan. Religious Spring Arbor University.
    http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll...OOLS/702060321

    She (he) and wife Joanne are really a good people and is a member or our mid-Michigan Tri-ess support group. Also great cooks--they brought a wonderful ham to the most recent meeting. His (her) contract expires in May. And will not be renewed--although the case is in court and may go to mediation.

    Thumbs up Great Person

    Is this guy not a centerfold for Cross-dressers everywhere? What an amazing individual.Make sure you go to Miqqi's website (http://www.yorku.ca/gilbert/tg/index.htm) as Robin has already mentioned.

    Well I have to brag some, Miqqi is a friend of ours, not like best friend, but more than far off acquanitance. Very sweet lady with a very supportive spouse and kids. She is an inspirtation for those who are fearful of being *outed*.

    I actually had heard about the politician from Texas before though. I had a friend who met the politician and his wife when they used to go to Fantasia Fair and I am really disapointed to hear he kinda got outed. My guess is he came out to someone who could not be trusted.

    Would have had my vote when I lived there that is for sure!

    What a shame that that happened.
