It is a period before the words “crossdresser” and “transgender” were in the vocabulary and a time before sexual assignment surgery was a possibility.

The Border

I was watching the news and one piece made me cry. I vowed that I will never work on anything for Myanmar (formerly Burma) again, unless it is an aid project. It shames me that I didn't question my own actions and my employer's actions before.

She said if, for some reason, she does not return in the new year to have a good Christmas, but she wasn't talking to me, more to my colleague at the next desk.

We all think we know she was born a man, but I don't really care. She has big dark eyes that I could drown in. I like to hear her laugh and she's also good fun to talk to.

She would never be interested in me though. I'm not brave enough or young enough to do what she did and I don't think she's a lesbian too.
