It is an unfortunate reality that most of the sites the search engines lead you to are pornographic.  Many of those
sights will affect your computer so that you cannot get out of the site.  Others will install phishing software and
spyware into your computer.  A few will infect your machine with a virus.   You have been warned.

Below are links to informational sites that are safe and for the most part contain real useful information.

str8s mailing list http://www.str8s.org/ The STR8S Mailing List is an Internet mailing list for straight spouses of
bisexual, gay, or lesbian partners who are trying to keep their marriages intact and for keeping the relationship
positive for those couples who are separating and divorcing. The Str8s List is not moderated; it is a closed list so
that only straight spouses will be members. The subscription list is private.
There are three other lists associated with STR8S---SOTTS, SSML and UKstr8s.
For more info on SOTTS visit the homepage at http://www.mailinglist.net/sotts
For more info on SSML visit the homepage at http://www.ssml-mor.org
For more info on UKstr8s, email ssnetwork@softhome.net the UK contact for SSN

Straight Spouse Network http://ssnetwk.org/ (SSN), formerly Straight Spouse Support Network. The Straight Spouse
Network is a worldwide organization of current/ former heterosexual spouses/partners of gay, lesbian, bisexual, or
transgender mates and mixed-orientation couples. Members provide personal, confidential support and resource
information to spouses, couples, and families. SSN is the only support network of its kind in the world.
As outreach, the network offers information about spouse and family issues, mixed orientation marriages and
spouse resources to professionals, community organizations and the media.

The Couples Page http://www.3dcom.com/couples/couples.html Revised 3/1/98 Relationships between men and
women are difficult enough with the pressures of jobs, money, children, bills and family matters. When the issue of
transgenderism is added to this already boiling cauldron, it's good to know that there are others who have
successfully navigated through this stretch of water. You are not alone, nor are you in unexplored territory.

The Transsexual Person in Your Life http://www.tsfaq.info/cgi-bin/index.cgi This was written for people who have
recently learned that someone in their life identifies as a transsexual or has decided to undergo gender transition.

Transfamily - Spouses and Partners http://www.transfamily.org/spouses.htm So, what do you do if your husband,
wife, or partner suddenly drops the bomb shell on you that they believe they're the wrong sex? Unfortunately, there
is precious little GOOD information out there for spouses/partners who are looking for answers. Many sites are out
of date or the links are broken. Other sites are written by a transgendered individual and targeted towards the
spouse/partner.... not necessarily what someone in that position is looking for.

Examples of Transsexuals    


Basic TG/TS/IS Information http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/TS.html We learned in Lynn's story that she
was born and raised as a boy, and later in life was changed into a girl by female sex hormone treatments and major
surgical procedures. Because of this past, Lynn is sometimes called a "transsexual" woman. Why did this happen to
Lynn, and what is transsexualism anyway?

Customizing a transition timetable http://www.tsroadmap.com/start/timetable.html Rushing into living full-time is
probably the greatest cause of potential unhappiness in transition. Most of us want to do it quickly, but you have to
be realistic.

Donna Rose http://donnarose.com  She also keeps her site current with the current events of programs and movies
and thoughts of the day and happenings within the T/G community.

Early transition advice from Lynn http://www.tsroadmap.com/early/lynn.html Lynn went full-time in her early twenties
and had SRS at 25. She sent this to me in July 2001, when she was 26.

Lynn's Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS) http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/~mirror/FFS/LynnsFFS.html On November 10,
1999, Lynn Conway underwent facial feminization surgery (FFS). The 10 hour operation was performed by Douglas
Ousterhout, M.D., D.D.S.

MOM, I NEED TO BE A GIRL http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/Evelyn/Evelyn.html You are about to read
a rare true story about a young boy who received a kind of help from his mother that some children need, but
almost none receive. Her Photo at 18
