Reply To: Crossdresser Corner

[RhondaLee]

I am Rhonda Lee… Outreach Director for the Atlanta Tri-Ess chapter. I am involved in educating both members and public about who we are, through individual meetings, outings with various groups (CDs and/or those who are anywhere along the spectrum) and am active on a national basis to improve awareness/acceptance of who we are and our needs. I have been involved in research studies, interviewed on NPR, authored articles on the subject and do presentations to classes and wherever I find a welcoming audience. Although most of my efforts center in GA and SC, I’d love to meet folks more local to me (NC). I am involved in a group of counselors and ministers (“Seekers”) seeking to help those in the LGBTQ community find accepting places to worship or counselors. My wife divorced me after 43 years because she could not accept being married to a crossdresser and insisted I find a cure. So I have particular empathy toward those in difficult relationships like mine and am doing all I can to educate and prevent others from suffering similar fates.
I’d love to connect with anyone interested in support or perhaps interested in just getting together. While I dress, but not fully, at home, I am most interested in going out fully dressed to meet with others. I never dress just to go out on my own. While fine going out with CDs, I especially enjoy dressing to go out to be with individuals other than CDs or a diverse group interested in engaging in meaningful dialogue or activities.
