Summary
editDescriptionAs a Trans girl in a boys Grammar School it was quite educational.jpg |
English: Katie is an engineer by trade but moved into computing after 20 years to take a position in a cancer hospital as part of the UK National Health Service, staying for 10 years, then moving into a financial services company for another 20 years. She likes to stick around when she’s enjoying herself. Finally, in October 2018, Katie retired and has been able to put a bit more time and effort into her writing.
She lives in Leeds, West Yorkshire, but was born and raised in Doncaster. She’s married to a wonderful wife, who Katie says deserves far better than her. They have two amazing daughters, and four of the most awe-inspiring grandchildren anyone could wish for. Road running is how she keeps fit, taking part in her local weekly Parkrun, and competing in 4 races each year. Katie is transgender, male to female, and working her way through transition while living full time in role, as well as being an active member of 3 LGBT support groups. As a young boy, Katie always knew she was different, having no interest in playing out with the other kids in the street. When she was 9 years old and saw a younger female relative in the bath, she knew straight away that her body should have been that shape. She also knew just how much trouble she’d be in if she told anyone, and anyway, there was no way changing her body would ever happen, so she kept quiet. At 13 years old the schoolyard talk of other boys made her realise their crude, disrespectful attitude to girls was so wrong. She saw things from the same perspective as those girls did. Again, she kept quiet, hiding her feelings, burying her emotions. After meeting a wonderful girl at the school dance, falling in love, courting her, getting engaged and finally married, she was determined to forget this strangeness she had. But she couldn’t, and relapsed every few years, before regaining her resolve. After 44 years of marriage, her wife found out and they separated a month later. They still love each other, and Katie is finally happy in her body as it changes into her true self. She still supports her wife, since that was her vow when they married. Happily, her wife and family now accept her as she becomes the woman she was always meant to be. But it has taken a while. |
