Stealth: A Transmasculine Podcast

Stealth is a biweekly podcast that captures the stories of transmasculine elders who transitioned before or around the year 2000. Transitioning, for the purposes of our podcast, includes all forms of social and medical transitioning. We value the background and experiences of our transmasculine community, and want to provide a space for those of us who are often overlooked. The term “stealth” highlights the fact that for our generation we were often told to hide our past and live an underground existence. Throughout our lives, each of us has had to navigate issues of disclosure which have impacted us in many ways.
