Acerca de esta escucha
What do you do when, just before Thanksgiving at your mother's, your 14-year-old son asks you to iron the dress he recently purchased and plans to wear? Listeners learn the answer and much more in this wonderfully frank, loving, and practical account of parenting a transgender teen.
Paria Hassouri chronicles what amounts to a dual transition: as her child transitions from male to female, she navigates through anger, denial, and grief to eventually arrive at acceptance. Despite her experience advising other parents in her work as a pediatrician, she was blindsided by her child's gender identity. Her journey forces her to reckon with how her own childhood as a brown kid in a white world led her to sometimes parent with fear rather than love. Hassouri discovers her capacity to evolve, as well as what it really means to parent and the deepest nature of unconditional love.
At its heart, Found in Transition is a universally inspiring portrait of what it means to be a family.

When Wayne and Kelly Maines adopted identical twin boys, they thought their lives were complete. But it wasn't long before they noticed a marked difference between Jonas and his brother, Wyatt. Jonas preferred sports and trucks and many of the things little boys were "supposed" to like; but Wyatt liked princess dolls and dress-up and playing Little Mermaid. By the time the twins were toddlers, confusion over Wyatt's insistence that he was female began to tear the family apart.

Jeremy Ivester is a transgender man. Thirty years ago, his parents welcomed him into the world as what they thought was their daughter. As a child, he preferred the toys and games our society views as masculine. He kept his hair short and wore boys’ clothing. They called him a tomboy. That’s what he called himself. By high school, when he showed no interest in flirting, his parents thought he might be lesbian. At 20, he wondered if he was asexual. At 23, he surgically removed his breasts.

Before she became the first transgender person to speak at a national political convention in 2016 at the age of twenty-six, Sarah McBride struggled with the decision to come out—not just to her family but to the students of American University, where she was serving as student body president. She’d known she was a girl from her earliest memories, but it wasn’t until the Facebook post announcing her truth went viral that she realized just how much impact her story could have on the country.

“Can I kiss you?” It was two months before the world premiere of Juno, and Elliot Page was in his first ever queer bar. The hot summer air hung heavy around him as he looked at her. And then it happened. In front of everyone. A previously unfathomable experience. Here he was on the precipice of discovering himself as a queer person, as a trans person. Getting closer to his desires, his dreams, himself, without the repression he’d carried for so long. But for Elliot, two steps forward had always come with one step back.

As a young child in North Carolina, Jacob Tobia wasn't the wrong gender, they just had too much of the stuff. Barbies? Yes. Playing with bugs? Absolutely. Getting muddy? Please. Princess dresses? You betcha. Jacob wanted it all, but because they were "a boy", they were told they could only have the masculine half. Acting feminine labelled them "a sissy" and brought social isolation. It took Jacob years to discover that being "a sissy" isn't something to be ashamed of. It's a source of pride.

Julia Serano shares her experiences and insights - both pre- and post-transition - to reveal the ways in which fear, suspicion, and dismissiveness toward femininity shape our societal attitudes toward trans women, as well as gender and sexuality as a whole. Serano's well-honed arguments and pioneering advocacy stem from her ability to bridge the gap between the often-disparate biological and social perspectives on gender. In this provocative manifesto, she exposes how deep-rooted the cultural belief is that femininity is frivolous, weak, and passive.

Historia
It’s funny how life never pans out the way you’d expect. I always knew that something wasn’t right, that some part of my inside didn’t match my outside. What I didn’t know then is that I’m transgender, a realization that took a lifetime to fully unpack and understand. And to embrace. Growing up in Michigan I started off sheltered with no idea of what lay over the horizon, but serving in the navy opened my eyes to what possibilities might be within my grasp. I encountered many forks in the road, sometimes I made the right choice, sometimes my decisions were terribly wrong.

Historia
At a time when we mourn public figures and national tragedies with hashtags, where intimate posts about loss go viral and we receive automated birthday reminders for dead friends, it's clear we are navigating new terrain without a road map. Let's face it: Most of us have always had a difficult time talking about death and sharing our grief. We're awkward and uncertain; we avoid, ignore, or even deny feelings of sadness; we offer platitudes; we send sympathy bouquets whittled out of fruit.

With clever wit and unflinching honesty, she tackles some of the most insidious messaging absorbed by queer kids and all young women, from the idea that any one thing can (or should) ever really “fix” you, to wondering what’s wrong with you when things don’t always feel better, and reminding us that, sometimes, a happy ending is only the beginning of the story.

David Wojnarowicz's brief but eventful life was not easy. From a suburban adolescence marked by neglect, drugs, prostitution, and abuse to a squalid life on the streets of New York City, to fame - and infamy - as an activist and controversial visual artist whose work was lambasted in the halls of Congress, all before his early death from AIDS at age thirty-seven, Wojnarowicz seemed to be at war with a homophobic "establishment" and the world itself. Yet what emerged from the darkness was a truly extraordinary artist and human being.

She’d known she was a girl from her earliest memories, but it wasn’t until the Facebook post announcing her truth went viral that she realized just how much impact her story could have on the country.

The story of Christine Jorgensen, America's first prominent transsexual, narrated trans embodiment in the postwar era. Her celebrity, however, has obscured other mid-century trans narratives. Their erasure from trans history masks the ways race has figured prominently in the construction and representation of transgender subjects. In Black on Both Sides, C. Riley Snorton identifies multiple intersections between blackness and transness from the mid-19th century to present-day anti-Black and anti-trans legislation and violence.

Truthful
I'm a Trans Woman. I had some difficulty in the early part of the book due to No.s word choices and attitude. I'm glad I kept listening because I come from a family that struggles with my gender identity. This book gave me insight from the perspective of a skeptical of non understanding Caregivers. I was able to make a call to someone who struggles and start an unlocking conversation. It also helped me understand the view of my journey from my families eyes. I'm able to start the process of letting the why go.
I appreciate the writers truthfulness which was cleansing for me with my not so distant past.
Paris Hassouri is an asset for our community and her daughter is wonderful, strong, courageous and Beautiful.
I definitely Recommend giving Found In Transition a listen and please use it a a resource.

A book on transition and motherhood. A book on life.
Honest, brave, touching and deep story on motherhood, acceptance of life, choices, transforms and growth. Needed book, as it sheds light on the transgender experience, which many of us may not experience in any way. Stories change the world and allows us to step into the shoes of others. Thank you for sharing the stories of your daughter, your family and your own story! It is empowering!

Thank you
As a mom of a transgender daughter, this story couldn’t have been more parallel to her story and the struggles my husband and other daughter are having towards her transformation. I am so grateful for this book was suggested to me and have since suggested it to many counselors. It has reaffirmed my need to move this process along for our daughter, knowing that we are harming her more by not doing so. Paria, thank you. I’m glad I had you as part of our journey and hope that this book will help my his move forward in his understanding. It is wonderful how accepting and loving you are as a family. Forever grateful

Beautifully written and read
I had to write a review after I read one review that complained that this story did not tell the child’s point of view and what she went through. I chose this book not because I have any experience with the trans community. I do not know anyone or have a child that is trans. But I am a mother that is always interested in other parents stories. This book is presented as a mother’s story and that is exactly what it is. The author does an amazing job of telling the families journey. I sympathize, just as any mother would do with her child going through anything. But now I have a whole new respect for anyone that is in the trans community and what they are going through. I am grateful that this world is starting to except this as a real truth. Ava is a very lucky girl.

A Must Read for Every Parent of a Transgender Teen
Paria’s book is a truly honest, heartfelt, provocative, inspiring, intimate journey that is a must read as a parent of a child who is transgender. I could relate to every feeling that she so perfectly captures with her gift of storytelling. Paria gives hope that there is light not only at the end of this journey, but in the moments when you can stop, breathe, and take in the gifts that are right before your eyes for the entire family.
