Summary of Lannie: My Journey From Man to WomanIn the battle between the sexes, he's her own worst enemy Do you know about the great gender divide over clean underwear? I didn't either, until I changed my sex. When I stopped living as a man and began living as a woman, I learned about clean underwear and many other remarkable things, such as: My life may have been easier if I had just been gay. Sex reassignment surgery hurts! So does electrolysis. You truly can become anything your heart desires, as long as you are true to yourself. Thus begins the real-life memoir of Lannie Rose, a regular guy who, at the age of 49, decided to live as a woman. Six months later, he underwent extensive surgery to become a woman. From his unusual childhood to her present life as a woman, Lannie Rose writes frankly about the huge social and physical conflicts she faces...as well as the challenge of using the women's locker room and finding sexy size 13 sandals. Triumphant, poignant, shocking, hilarious and extremely informative, Lannie! is above all else a woman's story of her search for herself and her faith in her own decisions. Rose's upbeat attitude and entertaining writing style make this account of a serious, sensitive subject a joy to read.
