Answers From Jennifer
There are 34 volumes of questions and answers here!
Here can be found the anonymous texts of actual letters written to me, and my answers in return. The letters are presented as a rather loose, ongoing continuous dialogue between a hypothetical questioner, and myself. Most every standard question about transsexuality is answered in here.
You can write to me, too!
