FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BAILEY AUTOGYNEPHILIA SOCIETY NAMES JAMIE FAYE FENTON AS THEIR 2005 POSTER GIRL

Chicago, 4/1/2005



The Bailey International Autogynephilia Society (BIAS) today announced the selection of Jamie Faye Fenton as their "2005 Autogynephilia Poster Girl".

BIAS Executive Director Lawrence Blanchard, in announcing the selection, made the following comments:

"Autogynephilia, being the prime cause of aberrant transgender expression in humans, is a mysterious and misunderstood disease. To call attention to those who suffer, we have selected one of the afflicted to serve as Poster Girl for our 2005 fund-raising drive.

Jamie Faye Fenton, once a known and respected scientist and inventor, was diagnosed as having autogynephilia at the age of 38. Despite many setbacks, Jamie has courageously fought back and serves as a role model for many of her sisters. After an extensive search, we are proud to introduce her as our 2005 Autogynephilia Poster Girl."

At the public announcement at BIAS Headquarters in Chicago, Jamie Faye Fenton said:

"I know from personal experience the pain and humiliation autogynephilia can bring upon an individual, her family, and her friends. Despite my many trials and tribulations, I hold out hope that science will someday find a cure. As the new BIAS Poster Girl, I urge everyone to give generously to the Bailey International Autogynephilia Society fundraising drive. Together, we can lick this!"

BIAS and It's Mission

Founded in reaction to disturbing developments in the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association (HBIGDA), the Bailey International Autogynephilia Society is devoted to research the causes and possible treatments of this debilitating condition. BIAS is named after famed autogynephilia expert J. Michael Bailey, PhD., Professor of Psychology at Northwestern University.

BIAS members include researchers and practitioners in the medical and behavioral sciences, autogynephilia sufferers, their families and friends.

BIAS includes divisions devoted to education, fundraising, research, and treatment referrals. Your tax-deductible donation will help BIAS expand its research, education, and treatment programs.



What is Autogynephilia?

Autogynephilia is a paraphilic mental disorder that causes apparently normal males to be overcome with an intense desire to have a female body and adopt feminine mannerisms, behaviors, and dress.

Symptoms of Autogynephilia include, but are not limited to: changes in facial coloration, hormonal imbalance, mammary enlargement, excessive seminal emissions, gender-atypical clothing choice, changes in genital morphology, orgasmia, compulsive Onanism, pedakinetamania, and vocal pitch changes.

While Autogynephilia is considered incurable, autogynephilic symptoms can be managed with a treatment plan developed by behavioral and medical professionals. If you or someone you know shows signs of autogynephilia, contact local authorities or call the BIAS Hot Line for a referral to a certified provider agency.
