For the readers who do not know my background I offer the following condensed biography to introduce myself to everyone.

I am what I guess some people would call a trans woman but I do not consider myself transgendered. True, I had gender reassignment surgery in 1984 (male to female) but I just consider it corrective surgery to realign my physical anatomy with my mental and emotional physiology. The word "transgender has become an umbrella word for every type of gender dysphoria and , yes, sometimes perversion on the planet. I am not speaking down on anyone, however, I am just a very simple woman, not unlike your mother, your sister, or your wife or any other main stream American woman. I am not "out there" and I deeply resent anyone putting tags on me or linking me with a group. I am an individual who is grateful for the grace of an almighty and a all loving Creator and it is my desire to serve Him with every fiber in my body.

Growing up in the 1950’s and ‘60’s was very confusing as I was raised in a very conservative Pentecostal church and at a time when little was known about gender dysphoria. To farther complicate things I was never gay and in this era of non information I felt very alone and very confused. There was absolutely no one to talk to, not even psychological therapist and the only thing I knew to do was to endeavor to find my manhood in whatever traditionally masculine pursuits I could think of. I became an Eagle Scout and later volunteered for and served in Viet Nam to search for that peace and comfort that seemed to always elude me. I kept telling myself that if I became a successful enough man than the peace from gender confusion would follow. However, as more outward affirmations and successes of masculine appearances were fulfilled the more confused I became. How could I feel like a woman when I was clearly validated as a man? I was extremely suicidal during many times of my life as there just never seemed to be any hope for the confusion that seemed to consume my life.

I was trained in the Word of God at a very early age and learned the traditional church teachings that were taught in the ‘50’s and ‘60’s. However, it was not until I began to really study the Word without any agenda to prove or disprove the church doctrines that I received that I learned who God really was and why He gave His son to die on the cross for everyone. It was His Word that set me free, not the well intended but misguided doctrinal teachings I had been taught in my youth.

As a young man in Theology School I was called into fulltime Christian Ministry, however, I knew it was not in the traditional sense to be a pastor of some church or a missionary to some distant land. During my transitional period from male to female I met many transsexuals who were as gender confused as me but chose to walk away from God to seek the only solution possible for their situation. I was compelled to offer any vision and love of an omnipotent and omnipresent God that I could, to show them that they could find peace and love through Him. I felt a strong compassion for everyone, however, I did not realize at the time that God was using me

After my gender reassignment in 1984, I just wanted to fade away into the normalcy of just being a woman and I lost all contact with the transgender community. However, it was in the writing of my autobiography that I once again found the call of God on my life to be an educator to church leadership and perhaps a roof that the outcast and the alone can gather under.
I invite anyone needing a ear to listen or a little support or perhaps a little Godly wisdom that was revealed to me along my thirty year journey, not to hesitate to contact me through this blog or my facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/bobbie.lang.90
