Opis

Gender blending or transgenderism is sexuality's newest cutting edge. The term transgender covers pre-operative and post-operative transsexuals, transvestites, drag queens, gender benders and all gender blenders, whether straight or gay, who in their cross-dressing and sex-changing transgress gender roles.
