There's more..Hardly a complete list either. But just showing how many other TS'es are successful in their own small businesses/crafts/countries and whatnot is inspiring to me. By putting them here, I hope others would feel "inspired" like I do.

Some of these women transitioned well. Some young, some mid age and some even around their work and gained acceptance (By the way these are all POST OP Transexuals).

It is said that there are approximately 30,000 to 40,000 post operative transsexual women live in the United States, and many thousands more are now in the process of gender transition here. These numbers are much larger than commonly assumed by the public because a veil of invisibility hides the true nature and extent of the transsexual condition. Especially hidden are large numbers of highly successful women who have fully transitioned. The reason is that most successful women live in "stealth mode" or are "woodworked". They leave their pasts behind and hide in plain sight in order to avoid social stigmatization and get on with their new lives. Their personal successes insure that they assimilate and blend right into society.

Here are more:

Nice post!

Good post HTgirl,

There are many stories of transexual women who have made something of themselves, which just goes to show that transgendered women don't need to be in porn or work as escorts to make a living. Many of the girls in the pics you posted are truly gorgeous as well, but they haven't had to rely on their outer beauty to succeed.

These girls have worked hard to make their dreams come true, many of them having faced opposition or prejudice and bigotry from others around them. It cannot be easy to be a TS in Iran. You rely have to admire these girls.

If I'm not mistaken, the information you posted is from :

Yes LG. Thats from the website youve attached. And as far as TS'es being successful at their careers and whatnot..Im sure "some" did rely a bit on their beauties to get there (being pretty to start with has had its advantages. LOL). Wether one worked as an "Entertainer" i.e. escort, showgirls or did porn or not..Im sure youll find out whom if you take time and read each ones bio. LOL. I just stumbled upon it today and havent gotten to read any TS lifestories i.e. TS Biographies..Oh but I will as this subject is completely very interesting to me.

Nice post!

Thankyou DJ Asia.

It is a good post surely but here on this board (i may hope so) a lot of people consider transsexual girls as normal.
But outside this board...well you know. I was in Baker NV in 2004 on sept 11 and at the local hotel The Border Inn they had a barbecue and a party with some transsexual performers. Ofcouse we came to talk with the owners of the place about this event. She told us they warned everybody in the neighborhood because some rednecks wouldn't like this. Now they know they didn't have to go there (the hotel has a casino etc and is the only place in the area where there is something to do)

Here some pictures of a girl who made it in my country..I know her very well, she is nice. She even appeared in Playboy magazine

Always nice to get a positive post. Good on you. High fives all around! Let there be general high-fivery!

[WendyWilliams]

LG you can be successful within any arena you choose even those of us who CHOOSE to do porn and escort, Im so tired of guys assuming that its "not normal" and or "not successful". I run a COMPANY where I pay taxes, have employees, make business decisions, and use my education from my Bachelors Degree everyday............Success is what you achieve in whether it be what most consider "normal" or not...................I dare anyone to tell Jenna Jameson that her success in the adult industry is any less than someone who owns a company.


Keep this positive as the purpose was.

I think I've seen that girl Kelly before. Is her full name Kelly Van DerVeer or something like that? I'm sure I misspelled it. She's very cute though.
