Transwoman Times

From Justine Valinotti: the life of a transwoman.

I began this blog on 7 July 2008 to recount some of my thoughts, feelings and actions, as well as medical events, of the year leading up to my GRS/SRS.

About Me

Justine Valinotti: Here I've come.

A journey that neither I nor anyone else could have foreseen has brought me here today.

You can follow this journey on my blogs: "Mid-Life Cycling" and "Transwoman Times." I am also serializing a book on another blog, "Memories and Those Who Stayed."
