In Bed with Susie Bright 654: Transgender Families - Before It Was Trendy

The award-winning TV show Transparent depicts what happens when a family member transgenders. Writer Sara Bibel has a few different insights about that experience, based on her own real-life dad, who transitioned when she was four years old. Susie reads from Bibel's article ("It Happened to Me: My Father Transitioned When I Was a Kid and It Was Nothing Like 'Transparent'") at xojane.com. Her memoir details the epic journey of a little girl who goes from not thinking that a dad wearing women's clothes is a big deal, to a young college preppie who shuts off all communication with her new "mom". How does the story end? You'll be on the edge of your seat.

Next, Susie introduces us to a fabulous website you'll want to visit. Audioporn is a blog filled with the sounds of people having sex. There are no pictures - just moans, grunts, gasps, and lots of heavy breathing. It's so sexy, and a great place to let your imagination run wild.

Then, it's our "Try This at Home" mailbag. We have a letter from a listener who failed to tell his last lover that he had herpes. Now he thinks he gave it to her! Susie is in damage-control mode and has a remedy for his situation.
