Listening

National Public Radio has a new program about LGBT issues. I am not sure of the title as I cannot find it on their web site, but it was on from 8 PM to 9 PM tonight. One of the three stories they covered was about a father who transitioned to female and her relationship with her daughter, Noelle. I was pleasantly surprised to hear how well the issues were covered, and I was especially appreciative of the interview with the daughter. I was later amazed to find the that daughter was one of three editors of stories written by the children of gay, lesbian, and transgendered parents: Out of the Ordinary: Essays on Growing Up With Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender Parents by Noelle Howey (Editor), Ellen Samuels (Editor), Margarethe Cammermeyer, Dan Savage. I will definitely have to add that to my Amazon wish list.
