"I spent that year in the traditional Irish manner - drinking heavily, singing songs, and wearing sheer-to-waist panty hose."Jennifer Finney Boylan, She's Not There: A Life in Two Genders (New York: Broadway Books, 2003) 112.
Highly recommended reading: a funny, fascinating, insightful, compassionate, wise, painful memoir by a transsexual English Literature Professor and fiction writer. I started and finished this the same day. Brilliant.
