Title A name given to the resource Rupert Raj - FTM #11 Subject The topic of the resource Rupert Raj wrote articles often reprinted in FTM International, edited by Lou Sullivan. Description An account of the resource A just married Rupert Raj-Gauthier attends the 11th (his first) International Symposium on Gender Dysphoria sponsored by the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association lHBIGDA). It was held at the Stouffer Tower Hotel in Cleveland, Ohio, from September 20-23. He drove there from Toronto with his new wife, Michelle. Rupert offered an extensive report on persons and topics with lots of detail. However, most significant for the present work is the information he learned about the emotional issues that arise for transitioning trans people. At the time, he was excited to learn more about FTMs who identified as gay, a topic he says was "practically unknown." He also heard a paper by Dr. Ira Pauly (a Reno psychiatrist) who "introduced" the existence of the "female-to-gay male'' and showed a videotaped interview he conducted with Lou Sullivan (a gay F-M man). The most poignant paper, by far, was Dr. Leah Schaefer's and Dr. Connie Wheeler's crucial look at guilt as a significant motivating factor in the gender-dysphoric person and the vital importance of slowing down the transitioning process so that the devastating effects of guilt on self-concept can be effectively understood and managed. These New York psychotherapists also touched on the possible guilt felt by the helping professional. Rupert continued to report how his wife announced at the conference that he and she "were there not as consumers, but as providers - to help fill the gap left by health care professionals." Before attending the symposium, Rupert proposed presenting a paper entitled "Some Sociological Variables Affecting the Differential Therapeutic, Counseling and Peer-Support Needs of Female and Male Transsexuals." However, it was turned down by Dr. Billowitz (the Program Committee Chairman, because "... it has been the policy that formal presentations at the meeting be given only by professionals with formal training." Finally, this issue contains an announcement. FTM extends its sincere thanks to Rupert Raj for the first 'Gender Worker Award,' a beautiful wall plaque with the following inscription: Presented by Lou Sullivan in Appreciation for Your Dedication and Outstanding Contributions to the F-M TS Community, 1990.

Rusty Moore Stole Text RUSTY MOORE Former Member, Park Slope United Methodist Church Brooklyn, New York I was an active Methodist for twenty years, the last ten of which as a woman of trans-sexual experience. After the first <a href="https://www.lgbtran.org/Profile.aspx?ID=21">Creech trial</a>, I felt I had to choose between joining the long slow process in the Methodist Church of over-turning the rejection of queer people, or resigning from the church. I chose to resign. I believe that if all people who accept queer people as full-fledged Christians in the Methodist Church would resign, it would bring home the implications of the issue with the greatest possible impact. My good wishes go out to those people who are still struggling for queer acceptance within the Methodist Church. We are allies in the broader struggle. Denomination United Methodist Church Contribution Date 2000 Contribution Story This is one of thirty one stoles from Park Slope United Methodist Church included in a display of UM stoles at the 2000 General Conference of the UMC in Cleveland. All are made from identically sized pieces in turquoise, lavender and purple cotton batik. With only 200 members, Park Slope has donated the largest number of stoles to the collection from a single United Methodist congregation. A diverse community, Park Slope's creed is: Hand in hand, we the people of the Park Slope United Methodist Church -- black and white, straight and gay, old and young, rich and poor -- unite as a loving community, in covenant with God and the Creation. Summoned by our faith in Jesus Christ, we commit ourselves to the humanization of urban life and to physical and spiritual growth. A scrappy congregation utterly committed to putting their faith into action, Park Slope has been unrelenting in its pursuit of justice for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people in the UMC. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of Park Slope and many others, the UMC continues its discriminatory ways. Rusty is one of thousands of LGBT people and their allies who have grown tired of waiting for justice, and have chosen to leave. In 1999, the Reconciling Ministries Network (RMN) inquired about the possibility of having a display of the Shower of Stoles at the General Conference the following April. At the time, there were only around twenty United Methodist stoles in the collection. We decided to introduce the Shower of Stoles to the Reconciling community by bringing the twenty UM stoles and about a hundred others to RMN’s Convocation in Denton, TX over the Labor Day weekend. Stoles started to trickle in during the fall, and by February they began coming in droves. In all, we received 220 United Methodist stoles – the vast majority of them arriving within eight weeks of the Conference. Thanks to a monumental effort by a number of volunteers who pitched in to help record, inventory, sew labels and make last-minute repairs, all of the new stoles were present in Cleveland. Twenty more people brought stoles directly to Cleveland, bringing the total number on display to 240. Towards the end of the General Conference, twenty eight lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender United Methodists and allies stood on the Conference floor in silent protest over the Conference’s failure to overturn the ban on LGBT ordination – a profound witness and act of defiance for which they were later arrested. As these twenty eight moved to the front of the room, another 200 supporters stood up around the balcony railing, each wearing one of the new United Methodist stoles. Hundreds more stood in solidarity as well, in the balcony and on the plenary floor, wearing symbolic “stoles” made from colorful bands of cloth. A group of young people from Minneapolis, members of a Communicant’s Class, had purchased bolts of cloth the preceding evening and stayed up all night cutting out close to a thousand of these “stoles”. In less than eight months, a handful of stoles had grown to become a powerful, visible witness to the steadfast faith of LGBT United Methodists nationwide.

Ruth Bruland Stole Text I have a stole in this collection because I have a dear friend who has kept insisting to me that the Church can make true and whole public declaration of the Gospel for which no apology needs to be made, and that the yokes these stoles represent were intentionally placed on the shoulders of gay and lesbian children of God by God because who is to say why things happen the way they do. What we are to say is the Gospel. Thanks be to God.
