A mother helps her little girl become a man
Swanton, VT – Coralyn Guidry?s 20-year-old son Michael looks like a typical young man. He has short, brown hair, so dark it?s nearly black. It continues down his cheeks in thick sideburns that extend to his jaw. The whiskers on his otherwise pale chin suggest that he has forgotten to shave. Dark, downy hairs sprout on his arms, beyond the sleeves of the T-shirt that hangs on his flat chest, and on his legs below the cuffs of his shiny green, knee-length athletic shorts.
He looks so comfortable in his body that you probably wouldn?t look twice if you saw him on the street. But unlike most guys his age, Michael isn?t just looking forward to going back to college in the fall or to turning 21. He?s also eagerly anticipating his hysterectomy.
