Now he really is Jahn the Man

MiamiHerald.com – By Lydia Martin

Jahn Kirchoff calls to check in, and the voice on the phone is startling. It has dropped considerably in just a couple of weeks. No way it sounds like a woman’s voice anymore.

”Yeah, my voice is getting deeper. My vocal cords are expanding — and my beard is really growing in now,” says Kirchoff, who is getting used to five-o’clock shadows.

In 2004, after living as a biological woman for 48 years, Kirchoff had surgery to remove his breasts. In August he marked the one-year anniversary of the start of hormone treatments.
