Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.   ) lizclaireohara | Oct 4, 2019 |   ) bibrarybookslut | Jul 5, 2017 | Born woman in Nigeria, Rizi Xavier Timane always felt he was a boy; that what he said to his father when he was only a child, but everyone always told him it was a phase; when the phase didn't pass, while he found ostracism from his relatives, he found some sort of support from his friends, but basically they always told him he was a lesbian, that if he liked girls that meant he was a lesbian, no one ever supported his feeling of being a man trapped in a woman body. And that was Rizi Xavier Timane's feeling, that he was trapped, and never once he felt comfortable with his woman body. I really liked one answer Rizi Xavier Timane received by one of his female cousins, that she supported him even if she didn't understand, cause being a woman was something important to her; but she was supporting, cause one thing is what you are and feel and a totally different thing is what others feel and are. Sincerely this is more a chronicle than a "story", meaning that, while honest and sincere, Rizi Xavier Timane is not a writer, and the style is very simple, not embellish by any skill an established author learns due to his profession. Rizi Xavier Timane is not trying to write fiction, he is chronicle his personal experience, maybe to help someone else going through his same experience. Very important also being able to read this experience from the first point of view of someone who was born in Nigeria, and so with a starting point that seemed so far from the ending one. http://www.amazon.com/dp/1484872460/?tag=elimyrevandra-20 elisa.rolle | Mar 4, 2014 | Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Rizi Xavier Timane, PhD, ASW, is a Nigerian-born transgender Life Coach, minister and certified grief counselor residing in Los Angeles, California. He is also a singer/songwriter and an actor who uses his music and movie productions as an outlet to promote Transgender inclusion, equality and affirmation. Rizi grew up in an extremely religious traditional Christian home in Africa and was subjected to multiple exorcisms and other reparative attempts by his family and the church to "pray the gay/trans away." An Unspoken Compromise takes you through his journey of self-discovery and spiritual exploration including:Coming out as a trans boy at eight years oldIdentifying as a lesbian in homophobic AfricaTransitioning while facing societal and family rejectionThe religious persecution and bullying he has suffered all alongRizi's message to the LGBT community is twofold. First, be your authentic self-it's the only way to inner peace and happiness. Second, if you are in search of a relationship with God, a spiritual path to unconditional love and acceptance does exist for you free from condemnation and negative judgement.
