Everybody Knows 15 Transgender Love Stories

Like all great romances, it begins with an argument on the subway. Well, not so much an argument as a staring contest, of sorts--a dazed trans girl reading a surly trans guy. But when Stephanie bursts spontaneously into tears, it"s Asher to the rescue. She tells him about the welcome yet unsettling threesome she shared had with her roommates, and he offers her the room his ex-girlfriend recently vacated. Stephanie falls fast, but Asher"s afraid of getting hurt again. Can a birthday cake finally get these sweethearts together?

This sweet and sexy transgender love story also appears in the anthology “Baby Got Back.”

Excerpt:

My mother presses her lips to my ear and says, “He’s in love with you, honey. Can’t you tell from the look in his eyes?”

Our gazes lock and I see it. I really see it now, the depth of emotion and fear of abandonment. Suddenly, I understand what’s holding him back. I see the wall around him.

After happy birthday is sung and gifts are unwrapped, my parents hug me and kiss me and set off for home. It’s just Asher now. As I watch him clear the dishes and wrap up the leftover cake, it occurs to me how much he cares.

“Do I get a birthday wish?” I ask. I’m trying to be cute, but I feel so nervous I could throw up.

He seems tense, and I wish he would just relax and give in.

I laugh and say, “You’ve got icing on your thumb.”

He just says, “Oh,” as I grab his hand and bring it to my mouth. I suck the sweetness from his skin and his breathing gets all shaky. We’re as nervous as each other.

“Is this okay?” I ask, almost a plea, before taking his index finger in my mouth. This one tastes different. Not so sweet. My belly tumbles as I watch him, waiting for an answer.

Finally, he nods. “You’re the birthday girl. How could I say no?”
