I am 40 years old and Transgender.</B></div> <div> <B>I don't fit into the stereotypical realm of what most think that a Transgender person should be or look like.</B></div> <div> <B>I was born with a female body.  I live & work full-time as a man.  I am on Hormone Replacement Therapy(HRT), testosterone and I've had no surgeries.  Still have all girl stuff.</B></div> <div> <B>The cool part? No one knows unless I tell.  I am accepted as the man I've always known I am.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Growing up in rural Roane County, WV was difficult to say the least.  Raised Baptist and taught that anyone gay or lesbian or different would go straight to Hell for their sinful ways.  I could never tell anyone how I felt.  I always felt trapped in the wrong body.  </B></div> <div> <B>Thinking God had made a mistake and I was supposed to be a boy, I spent many long nights praying that I would wake up the next morning as the boy I felt I was.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>I moved to the San Francisco Bay in 2003 to start my transition to be physically male.  Mainly because it was the last resort before suicide, so I thought.  I didn't want to die, I wanted to live and be recognized as a man.</B></div> <div> <B>I was successful in California.  I had a good job and great friends but it was time to come home after two years of city life.</B></div> <div> <B>I moved back to rural Roane County Labor Day of 2005.  I live and work at Long Fork Campgrounds & Resort in Walton, WV where I am Director and Events Coordinator.  </B></div> <div> <B>It's been stressful re-introducing Danny back into the small, tight knit community in which I was raised.  I kept a very low profile at first, scared that I may be out-ed and harmed in some way by the people I once knew as friends.  </B></div> <div> <B>As time goes by and more people know about my situation, the easier it becomes to move back into the local community.  I have not encountered anyone who has been threatening to me.  Actually, the people I was most afraid of are now my friends. </B></div> <div> <B>My parents aren't happy with my decisions.  I try to understand their thinking and understand they are embarrassed by my actions and why.  They were just getting used to the idea of being a lesbian.  We are starting to communicate more now which is great for me.</B></div> <div> <B>I made another life changing decision once back in West Virginia.  I decided to be totally OUT as Transgender.  I remember the feelings of isolation and sadness I felt while trying to make sense of what was happening with me.  I had no one to talk to, no one who understood.  I don't want anyone else feeling those ugly feelings.</B></div> <div> <B>I'm very open about who I am and what happens during transition.  I am happy to answer any questions I can.  I get many questions not only from questioning Trans folk but also by people who are just curious, gays, lesbians, bi and especially straights..  </B></div> <div> <B>One goal is to educate as much as I can and to show the world Trans folks are not freaks.  I'm not an expert and I'm not pretending to be perfect.  I'm simply trying to make it through life as best I can and possibly help others along the way.  I am finally content with what I have been given.  </B></div> <div> <B>I can be contacted by e-mail at </B><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Book Antiqua" ><A HREF="mailto:danny@longfork.com" TARGET="_top" TITLE="mailto:danny@longfork.com"><U><B><U>danny@longfork.com</U></B></U></A></FONT><B> or mail phone 304-577-9347.  If anyone wants to chat, just give me a shout.</B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
