From Katherine Dalton To Adrian: A Lesbian Model's Transformation

Fashion model Katherine Dalton speaks about her/his transformation from being a lipstick lesbian to a gay man.


Perfect size 10 figure with gorgeous curves, pouted lips, long and blonde hair - a petite model for her/his 5'5" height, Katherine Dalton nevertheless had what it takes to command big projects as a fashion model. Or so it seemed.

The model felt uncomfortable as a woman, feeling like a man trapped in a woman's body. S/he even despised the seemingly greatest asset that a woman could have - boobs. Later, a gender expert confirmed that the troubled model was transexual.

Katherine Dalton admitted that s/he took up modeling to help her/his low self-esteem. S/he tried to emulate the looks of Pamela Anderson, Kate Moss, and Marilyn Monroe as her/his model figure. Nonetheless, her/his admiration for women wasn't much greater as her/his jealousy of men. S/he wanted to be a man and started hating her/his body.

S/he underwent therapy and by the end of it, began using the name Adrian. Afterwards, s/he underwent an operation to remove her/his 32C breast, started injecting testosterone, did hysterectomy and later, phalloplasty. S/he would undergo an erectile implant next year to complete her/his transformation.

Some of us could never understand this person who refused to live by what life had given to her/him but for Katherine Dalton, altering her/his body would mean altering her/his life into something s/he would like to live.

“For years I was a man trapped in a woman’s body. And although I was a beautiful woman I felt ugly because I was not who I wanted to be. Now I feel complete and it is fantastic. Going through the op to be a man was scary but it's the most fulfilling thing I've done and I feel right for the first time in my life."

Katherine Dalton, now Adrian, is a 31-year bachelor and hopes to pursue relationships. “I don’t know what the future holds. I’d like to travel and live in Australia but for now I’m just happy being me.”

Still her/his choices also has some drawbacks. For one Katherine Dalton/Adrian has to sacrifice her/his modeling profession to pursue happiness - “Obviously I don’t get doors held open for me any more - but I can live with that.”
