- Even for the most mundane of things, a man in a dress still seems to make the news. In this case two men have decided to live together as woman. They would probably best be described as non-op transsexuals, as neither of them wants to have a sex change. Though naturally to add some spice and sizzle the paper terms than as “transsexual lesbians”.
Tranny couple
The thing that strikes me is that if this were any other couple it would barely make the news if you paid the paper to print it. Though This shouldn’t in any way be taken as a complaint. The transgender community can do far worse than two people deeply in love deciding to live out their remaining years together.
It is touching though, that between them the “lesbian fathers” have five kids between them, and waited so long to express their true selves. If you ask most crossdressers you’ll hear a similar story. Fearing that they would hurt their loved ones, the transgendered soul tortures itself into conformity. Hiding it’s light so deep that the rest of the world cannot see it. The message that Jenny-Anne and Elen send us is clear and poignant – do what you love, even if it is wearing women’s clothes. Even if it means living with someone else who enjoy’s wearing women’s clothes.
Jenny-Anne sums it up nicely:
“Life was one big act for me,” said Jenny-Anne, who used to work as a chemist. “From the age of four I always knew I should have been a girl.
Despite some of the nasty comments here, there was more than enough even handed coverage in the news about the “lesbian fathers” on other websites.
Before you move on and surf to another web page, take a moment. What are you willing to do to live as who you are? Are you willing to risk the scorn of society to express your innermost being?

The title should read transexual homosexuals twins [they seem to dress alike] & since they haven’t fully changed I guess that makes them half n half – not cool at all.
I was going to comment about the clothes they were wearing, but though that it wouldn’t be as pertinent to the article, but yes – they do look a bit like twins.
Weirded out – thanks for your comment. It is difficult sometimes to understand why people can sometimes be so different from us – in ways that don’t make a lot of sense. Thank you for being open to reading and listening about others, and for expressing your opinion.
Hello Vanessa, Just came across your blog on our article in various papers in Sept 2008. I appreciate you commenting on this, but would just like to add a few words that may make our position clearer. We did the article to try and empower others to be open and live authentic lives which reflect their true gender identity. We are both Transsexuals (You don’t have to have surgery to be Transsexual) and use the term " Trans Lesbians" simply to help others understand our way of living together. We don’t just think we are female, we know our core… Read more »
I (phyllis) and my dear partner Leslie have been longtime crossdresser(transvestites). We were “married" 3 years ago in Toronto’ We are both 58 and have adopted openly a lesbian life style.’ It was a little strange for neighbours but we are now fully accepted. Every July we both march in the GLBS
parade clearly showing our sexual preference.
Best wishes
Phyllis & Leslie
