Winni's Bio

Officer Winni in her officeHi, there! Thank you for stopping by. My name is Winni. Winni is a Chinese girl who was born in Taiwan, Republic of China. Do you know about Taiwan? If you have never heard of it before, please check under your keyboard or mouse, you may find a little sticker saying "Made in Taiwan". Winni was made in Taiwan, too. These keyboards and other things are my sisters and brothers. Please treat them nicely.

As you can see, Winni is a nice looking girl. Some ladies and gentlemen say Winni is quite beautiful. Thank you very much!! You all are so kind to me. Winni knows those are "over" compliments but Winni just can't resist them. Winni thinks there is no girl that can resist them either. ^_^

Lt. Winni Daniel in her Navy blue dressWinni was born male and still remains the same. Different from other boys though, Winni would like to be girl rather than be a boy. So, now you know, Winni is a Transgendered (TG). More specifically, Winni is a pure Male-to-Female Cross-Dresser or so called Dress-for-Funner. However, things are changing along with Winni's self discovery. Winni is now a Woman-to-be a.k.a. pre-op Transsexual woman.

Winni has been cross-dressing since her childhood. Winni was a lovely and quiet kid who loved dolls more than robots. Winni had long hair at that time. If Winni were to wear skirts, she would have looked like a little princess. But, Winni couldn't. Winni followed in other boys' steps and kept her desires deep inside. Winni joined the ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) while she was in university. Eventually, Winni finished her degree and commissioned  an engineering officer in the Naval Engineering Corps .  See the photos on the left and upper right, that's Winni in her naval uniform when she was a full Lieutenant (O-3).

Winni secretly dresses whenever time was available.  After a lot of practice and "trial-and-error", Winni's make-up skills became better and better. But Winni still stayed in the closet.  Winni just didn't have confidence in her female appearance at all.

Winni in TV/TS support groupIn 1993, Winni went to the United States for professional training and to further her education. This is the first time that Winni found out she was not alone. There were a lot of TG sisters in the US, and in the world. Winni bought a bunch of books and magazines that talk about TG issues. Winni was so happy.

Winni had a place in a post-graduate school in UK few years later.  Winni studied in Northern England. September 1996 was a milestone for Winni.  Winni attended a local TV/TS support group for the first time and went out fully en femme in October.  Winni had her first full-time female real life trial during late December to early January. She found that she could pass in the public without problems. The only thing she need was to working on her voice.* Now, she has questions to think: "Am I a TV or a TS?"; "If I am not a TS, how can I so used to female life?"; "It was so natural to me, why?";.....

* She though that her voice is not feminine. But, her friends didn't think the same.

Winni and friends in the GroupWinni is in semi-full-time since then.  Why it is 'semi-'? That is because Winni is dressed so often almost every day and go out public quit usual.  The only difference from full-time is Winni did not attend school en femme.  Other than that, there are no big difference. How's the feel of being a semi-full-time?  Winni must say, Winni loves it very much and wondering why doesn't she do this earlier? Amazingly, Winni is so used to her female role.  Yet, there are still some difficulties to overcome, such as facial hair, skin care, dress code and so on. Winni did not take hormones at that time, it was very hard to have them there. This kept Winni trouble in dealing with hair, skin and other things since these become a everyday issue...  To certain extent, it is not easy to be a woman though. But Winni enjoys to do it. ^_^

In June 1997, after a long time deep thinking, Winni decided to seek professional helps. Accompanied by her TS sister of local TV/TS support group, Winni went to see her doctor.  She was so nerves about telling her GP about her transgenderism.  Anyway, she managed to overcome it.  She wished that she can have her HRT right after seeing her GP.  Unfortunately, her GP was not interested in her case. He thought Winni would only waste the NHS resource.  He suggested Winni to see a private practitioner. Winni was so depressed by this.  Nevertheless, Winni decided to have electrolysis first for instead since the electrolysis is the most efficient way to rid off facial hair in present time and the sooner, the better.

Winni's electrolysis went very good. Her electrolysis is a very nice and understanding lady.  After less than 10 sessions of treatment, most of Winni's facial hair were removed which brought Winni a great deal of confidence in passing in public.  Now, Winni's no long afraid people look closer. ^_^  Notably, the electrolysis needs long time to achieve its best result.  Therefore, Winni kept her treatment on weekly basis.

Early August 1997, Winni went to see Dr. Russuell Reid in London, UK.  After an hour of consultation, Winni was prescribed her first HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) medicines by Dr. Reid.  Winni's HRT, then, was began.  So, reader can say, from now on, Winni is a Woman-to-be!!

Does Winni deiced to have the SRS in the near future?  Well, Winni does not know yet.  Winni would like to keep her option open.  Winni still has a lot of things to overcome before she can embark her transition openly. (Aug.1997)

Winni finished her post-graduate study in England in late 1997.  She currently lives in Taiwan. (Nov.1997)

Winni is a very talkative person and always loves people. "Aquarius" Winni has many, many friends. Friends are essential to Winni's life.  Winni loves computer, films, music, and traveling.  She loves the sea and sky very much.  No wondered, she is an FAA private pilot (ASEL) and a licensed mariner.  Winni also all right in her academic works.  She has earned her Master degree of science.

OK, you now know almost everything about Winni.  If you have any comments, please drop a line to Winni.  Also, Winni loves new friends, if you'd like to be Winni's friend, she would feel this to be her great honor.
