Amazing Women Helping One Dad Help His Daughter

huffingtonpost.com – Wayne Maines – Father, storyteller, and advocate for change

The most amazing woman I know is my wife, and I really need to tell her how special she is more often, but she is my wife and these words regularly go unspoken. Thank you for all that you do to keep our family strong.

When I need them, the other most amazing women continue to step up to the plate to help me grow and support my family. Women like Jenn Burleton, the executive director of transactiveonline.org; Susan Massch, the director of transyouthequality.org; Joanne Herman, author of Transgender Explained For Those Who Are Not; Jenny Boylan, another author and awesome professor; and Jean Vermette, a solid Mainer who keeps me grounded.
