Somehow I didn't see this changed comment here, maybe I didn't get an email for it. ;_;

I did finish reading the book and I have to say it got better toward the end, though in some places very dated. I don't remember the publishing date, early or mid nineties I think. But yes, definitely more medically-termed. I actually do wish there was a more modern version of it, because once I finally got into the meat of the book it was much more balanced and fairly informative for people not going through it personally.

I used to think of myself as having the wrong body a lot... but I agree with what you said, too. I think once I'm a little further along in my physical transition I'll be quite happy in my own skin. =3
