Gender Odyssey Canceled for 2010
Submitted by Ryan on Sat, 02/20/2010 - 10:37amIt is with great sadness that I report that Gender Odyssey 2010 has been canceled. The good news is that the producers are working on an exciting project to bring a year-round health and wellness program to the Trans community. This saddens me greatly because Gender Odyssey has a big place in my heart. It was Gender Odyssey 2007 that I discovered that I was Trans. It was a pretty intense time as my wife and I grappled with what this meant to our relationship. Believe it or not, it was just as difficult for me to come out to my transgender wife as I imagine it is coming out to any spouse. My wife had to deal with guilt for not being totally supportive because she was just as angry and hurt as anyone would be. I told her that there's no need to feel guilty because I did change the rules after 12 years of being together. Now, I could not ask for a better supporter. Breanna is not only the Love of my Life but she is also my best friend. While I did not actively begin my transition until January 2008, The discovery of my identity will always be linked to GO.
