Boys Don’t Cry…Except Everyone Cried for Brandon

Pants Over Skirts

Teena Brandon never liked wearing dresses. When his mom asked him why, he told her it was because boys could look up them when he climbed the stairs. In truth, he didn’t feel like they suited him. He preferred pants to skirts, sneakers to preppy shoes, and big hoodies to tight shirts.

Born as Teena Renae Brandon, for the first several years of his life, Brandon was referred to as a girl. It was only during adolescence that he began presenting himself as a man to others. He changed his name, cut his hair, stuffed socks in his pants for the bulge, and didn’t tell the girls he dated that he was actually female.
