Book Description
Chastity Bono is now Chaz. Her decision to “become” a man made headlines around the world, but she is not alone. Transgender men and women frequently appear on television talk shows and reality programs to share their stories. By doing so, they inevitably get the attention they seek, but not necessarily the kind of attention they want. While some come forth in an effort to promote tolerance, acceptance and understanding in mainstream society, their decision to live as—or in some cases have surgery to become—the opposite gender often sparks curiosity and more visceral reactions born out of ignorance. But this is the other side of the story. Truth Be Told: Adam Becomes Audrey is a tragedy, a comedy, and a love story. It is my story. In vivid detail, I recall how I met, fell in love with, and married the man of my dreams, only to find that he self-identified as and wanted to become a woman. Read what happened after I learned the truth.
