Generation Gendergirls: "Urban" Myths No More

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

Success Story!

“Growing up, boys and men never did the right thing. Maybe if they spent more time as girls, you wouldn’t see that. And we’d all be better!”

The historic issues of African-American families seems to have no answer. Boys and men abandoning their women, often leaving behind young mothers totally dependent on other women, such as grandmothers, aunts, and friends. The welfare state continues unabated. And what life for those males who do flee? Drugs, crime, and the threat to their very existence.

Harris Leland barely knew his son Derrick, as he was 44 and had been in prison mostly over the last three decades. Derrick’s momma died from diabetes, and his older cousin was helpless to watch him fall into the gang culture, and paralyzed in fear and guilt as Derrick raped while high on crystal meth. The horror of watch Derrick’s son Ashton struggle with genetic disorders led to an unfortunate suicide of the birth mother. Poverty’s cycle churned on. Until Harris stepped in.

Freshly out on parole and in tears over his family’s tragedy, 3G helped Harris cope with a long standing, unaddressed secret: his transexuality. 3G helped Harris – rechristened Helena - get the treatment she needed to live life as the woman she never dreamed she could be. 3G’s counselors then petitioned the orphan’s court to allow Helena custody of her grandchild. The fact that Ashton was the offspring of two first cousins left him without the glands necessary to produce testosterone, so Helena chose to raise her as a granddaughter, and so, Anastasia would bond with Helena in the way not possible before.

Her heart filled with joy, but aching at the issue of Anastasia never knowing her birth mother, and not being able to relate to her misogynist father Derrick, 3G helped locate and rehabilitate Derrick after he was left for dead following a drug deal went bad. Derrick spat at Helena, believing that he was better as a dead gangster than the outrageously feminine role 3G was suggesting. However, on Easter Sunday, a sober and repentant Derrick checked himself into the facility.

Five years later, Daniela Leland posed for this family portrait with her baby girl and oh so happy mother. Daniela even found herself being wooed by some well off gentlemen, and even Helena wanted to pursue some romance. After all, they had to show a good example for Anastasia!

Generation Gendergirl: 3G Social Club

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS PRESENTS

LOOKING FOR A FEW GOOD MEN

who would like to meet and date some lovely 3G moms and daughters

INTRODUCING – The 3G Social Club

“No man would ever come between Alicia and I… but that doesn’t mean we wouldn’t like to spend some time with some nice guys.” – Eve O’Malley (RIGHT, WITH ALICIA)

Since its formation, Generation Gendergirls (3G) has helped countless fathers and sons (who were really mothers and daughters) live life on their terms – with female bodies, positive attitudes, and the bonds of family. Now 3G would like to help men who are perfectly happy and content as guys, but have a special attraction to transgender ladies, to have some fun and perhaps move on to something very special…

The 3G Social Club welcomes submissions from both 3G families – newly christened moms, daughters, aunts, grandmoms, et al… and men who are responsible, clean, single, and open-minded. We match people based on their family unit. For

example, after Eddie O’Malley (42) and his son Adam (17) joined 3G and were reborn as the pretty redheads Eve and daughter Alicia, they both inquired into the Social Club to set up a double date with a father and son who would be sweet, kind, and attentive.

“I told Alicia to not worry – Mom’s nervous but excited as well,” Eve told us. “She said she had a dream were she was dancing and kissing this cute guy, then she looked over and saw me doing the same with an older guy.” I said great; let’s go have some fun with this!”

Generation Gendergirls: Long Lost "Sisters"

A success story from

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

“After all these years, we’re now both women – and mommies!”

20 years ago, high school best friends Stewart Dixon and Michael Costa were outcasts and mercilessly picked on as “sissies.” They confided in each other that they would together seek SRS to become the women they felt they were born to be. However, the Dixons moved cross-country the next year, and the friends lost track. In that time, each one of them married a woman, the found themselves as unhappy single dads (Stew’s wife died of cancer, and Michael’s wife was lost to addiction) Both had sons who shared their fathers’ identity crisis.

Through 3G, each family was assisted in transition. Heath and Jack Dixon used to fight constantly, now they are devoted sisters who love their mom with all their hearts. Dennis Costa was caught one day playing with Maria’s clothing “stash” and a heart to heart talk helped the new girls form an unbreakable bomb. Then last summer, a remarkable reunion happened, at the 3G Regional Family Conference.

3G’s marketing director was interview several families for a documentary, when they realized that Serena and Maria were the same age, from the same hometown, and attended the same school. Then the two mommies were introduced to each others’ family. The three young girls had instant chemistry and played with dolls and watched videos – but their parents were oblivious to the other identities until the 3G Special Director let the cat out of the bag. The long lost friends shrieked and sobbed as they hugged each other, reunited after two decades apart.

POSTSCRIPT: Serena and Maria now live as sisters in Texas. They live together, work together as real estate agents, and they even double date together. They also are raising three beautiful girls who love their cousins and aunties as much as they love their mommies.

Generation Gendergirls: Rose Petal Academy

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

“The staff and students at Rose Petal are so warm and caring. We’ve never felt so welcome as girls.”

Staci Rollins (28) spent the last year worrying about how her family’s transition to living as female would be perceived in her small community. “In our small town, nobody had ever seen a man and his sons all transition at once, so I was scared that Rebecca (5) would be teased and taunted in kindergarten . Also, whenever I took her and Lorelei (2) out shopping or to the park, I know there was lost of small-minded people who would look at us like we were freaks. I wasn’t comfortable now that I was a single mom about my safety either.”

In 2005, 3G opened the Rose Petal Academy, a private school designed not only to educate trans-daughters from levels K-12, but also to provide support, guidance, and sisterhood for the trans-mothers and their families. To Staci, Becky, and Lei, Rose Petal has been a godsend. “The teachers are very nice and pretty, and all of the other girls are my friends,” Becky gleeful tells us. “They all love being girls, just like my mommy and my baby sister.”

“I’m grateful that instead of menacing stares and haughty attitudes, we got open arms and warm smiles at Rose Petal, Staci says while wiping away a tear. “And it’s not just in Lei’s daycare or Becky’s class – I’ve seen how the older girls are taught how to be sweet but strong young women, and they let them express both their school pursuits and their feminine grave and charm. They even prepare them for their social lives, and being a woman on the job and even dating and courtship. And through the network of other students and their mommies, sisters, and even a couple of grandmas , my life is so much better than it was. I now have some very close girlfriends and some sweet young girls who call me Aunt Staci. Through my girlfriend Lana I also got a great job at Lady Sunshine (another 3G success story!) and that’s where I met my soul mate Kurt. My girls are looking forward to being in our wedding ceremony and having a step-daddy. We are so blessed!”

Generation Gendergirls: Sisterhood of Industry

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

“It’s not a man’s world anymore, and my mom and I are going to take advantage of it.” – Jessica Sanders

Living the American Dream is about freedom – freedom not only to live the life you wish as the gender your inside, but also to live, work, and play the way you want to. In 2002, 3G formed the Sisterhood of Industry (SI),a support group that lobbies on behalf of trans-family operated small and medium sized businesses nationwide.

In the late ‘90s, auto body mechanic Bryan Sanders was a single dad working lots of overtime to help raise his teen son Jacob, while each dealt with their transexualism.

They sacrificed more than most families when they transitioned to become Barbara and Jessica, and thanks to educational grants from SI, the Sanders girls opened Lady Sunshine Florists soon after Jessica graduated college with her BS in Horticulture. Working together with state agencies, the SBA, and 3G partners such as Collins Sisters CPA and the Gender Family Law Centre, the new business grew from a staff of 3 to 68 in 2010, and Lady Sunshine won numerous awards, including Best Green Business Entrepreneurs and the Tolerance Gold Standard as “best employer for trans-family” (currently eight former 3G family clients work for Lady Sunshine, including the head of HR and her sister , a regional sales manager ).

The business is profitable, and perhaps more importantly, Barb and Jessie felt blessed to have to grown their love of floral design and working together as mother and daughter into this successful enterprise. “After years of shutting down the voice inside,” Barb admits, “the freedom of being a woman, with my best friend, business partner, my pride and joy – thank you SI and thank you 3G!”

2010 will be a busy year for the duo – Barb will now go her long delayed college degree, while Jessie returns for her MBA. They will open a second greenhouse and distribution facility that will employ 50 more staff once fully operational. Jess will also serve as co-chair of the newly formed SI Leadership Forum, which will mentor new trans-family start-up businesses.

And in June, mother and daughter will wed their fiancées in a dual ceremony. Of course, there will be plenty of pretty flowers at the church!

Generation Gendergirls: NEW-TWO

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

It’s time the end the cycle of crime, abuse, and broken dreams.

“Boys being boys” is what some in this country say whenever their sons and brothers misbehave, and it is we as a society who pays the price. 3G has been speaking to communities, churches, schools, and even Congress about our groundbreaking NEW-TWO program. For juvenile offenders who are sons of repeat adult offenders, NEW-TWO offers fathers and sons with criminal records an opportunity to avoid the cycle of going in and out of prison by agreeing to surgical procedures, hormonal therapy and psychiatric counseling designed to turn change at-risk males to gentle, peaceful, and beautiful females.

Pablo Cortez had been in and out of courts, prisons, halfway houses and addiction treatment since he was 14. At age 34, he barely had a relationship with his son Donnie, who at 15 already had spent a few years in juvenile. NEW-TWO gave them a shot at breaking the cycle, by trading in their stubborn male ways for a new life. Two years later, Penelope has stopped taking drugs and gone “straight” working in retail, while Danielle is back in school and even become a cheerleader. As mother and daughter, they are closer than ever, and instead of broken dreams, they now dream of careers, college, and even starting new families.

Generation Gendergirls

GENERATION GENDERGIRLS

“Without 3G, I’m not sure my daughters and I would have made it through our transition.”

Last year, thousands of people worldwide began a new chapter of their life and made their dreams come true by changing their gender. In the last few years, many men have had the dual pleasure of becoming happy, attractive women while simultaneously helping their sons, brothers, and even fathers through their own transformation. That’s why GENERATION GENDERGIRLS was formed – to be a resource for the new mother s, daughters, and sisters. We also are the voice of the multigenerational trans-family. We help new females with their self –confidence, provide educational resources for families before and after conversion, and support industries that support our families, such as retailers and hospitality.

Jeanne Clemons is one of 3G’s success stories. In her previous identity as Jerry, she was married to a lovely lady named Naomi, with whom she raised sons Adam and Brian. Then Naomi was diagnosed with leukemia, and was given a year to live after chemotherapy failed. Sensing that Jerry and sons would collapse in depression upon Naomi’s passing, the family’s social worker recommended their case to a 3G counselor who interviewed all of the Clemons.

With Naomi’s urging (even while in her final hours), the family was nominated to attend a 30 day session at the 3G Femmersion Spa and Institute in Winslow, Arizona. Thanks to our generous fundraising partners, the trio attended at no cost to their insurance, and even Jerry’s employer was compensated for his leave. Our skilled personal care attendants, cosmetologists, and therapists gave Jerry a sneak peek into a new life – as Jeanne, an lovely and demure mother of two sweet teen daughters – the newly christened April and Bethany.

The family had the opportunity to return to male life but their time as females not only helped them heal their loss, it gave them new purpose and a deeper love for each other. Once they signed off on a permanent transition, 3G was there every step of the way – giving advice on wardrobe, schools, a new job for Jeanne, and even romantic advice and support – because all three Clemons girls will need it!
