My Husband Betty My husband Betty--Love, Sex and Life with a Crossdresser

ISBN 1 56025 515 3 by Helen Boyd £6.99 from www.amazon.co.uk.
Although it's written by the wife of a Transgendered husband and cannot be recommended too highly to other wives/partners, it goes a lot further than that and is recommended it to anybody anywhere on the Male to Female 'spectrum' or outside looking in. Basically she has set out to find out everything she can about the Male to Female Transgendered / transvestite / crossdressing scene (all these terms are explained in the book). She does this with incredible perception and honesty. Because of her perspective as the wife of a crossdresser, she takes no prisoners and never lets us off the hook. She covers all the issues to do with gender. She boldly wades into the issue of sexuality and never once tries to cloud it. At times she doesn't try to hide her exasperation and anger but she always lets us know when she is being subjective. For this reason it is imperative to read the book from cover to cover.
