Repartee

Pontefract

Transition

the wish that I had been born female has never left me

I thought I’d just try on one or two items of my mother’s and sister’s clothes,

Instinctively I knew it was wrong but I did not know why.

I felt suicidal.

I was developing my own self-acceptance about my cross-dressing

it had always been at the back of my mind that I would produce my own magazine one day

the first issue of Repartee appeared in September 1989

this was the time to realise my dream of living full-time as Martine
