Dear Members of the Transgender Community:
We are graduate students in the Human Sexuality
Program at NYU. We attended your 5th Annual NYC
Transgender & Transsexual Health Empowerment
Conference on November 6, 1999. We thoroughly enjoyed
the conference and were particularly intrigued by the
issues raised in the intimacy workshop. We conducted
research and found that there has been no study on
issues of intimacy in the transgender community.
We also noted a gap between the knowledge of some
members of the professional community (doctors,
counselors, etc.) working with transgender people and
that of the people themselves. We ascertained that
research done in this area could serve as a bridge
between transgender people and the medical and
psychological professionals who work with them. We
submitted a proposal (see enclosed), which was
accepted, for a presentation at this year's Eastern
Regional Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality
Conference on intimacy in the transgender community.
We would like to ask for your assistance in conducting
our research. We would like to conduct it with a
questionnaire to members of the community.
Confidentiality will be guaranteed to all
participants. Please forward this email to anyone who
might be interested in this study. We appreciate any
assistance you can offer us. We are also doing an
online-survey on our website at

Thank you for your time and consideration. We look
forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Remi Newman and Huso Yi
