Robert Eads
Robert Eads (December 18, 1945 – January 17, 1999) was an American trans man, whose life and death was the subject of the award-winning documentary ''Southern Comfort (2001)''.
Eads transitioned later in life and as such it was deemed unadvisable to seek surgical sex assignment to male genitalia.〔 Eads was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 1996, but as an example of the social stigma faced by gender variant individuals, more than a dozen doctors refused to medically treat him on the grounds that taking him on as a patient might harm their practice.〔 When he was finally accepted for treatment in 1997 the cancer had "already metastasized to other parts of the body, rendering any further treatments futile."〔
==Family life==
Eads began transitioning in his forties, after a marriage to a man and after having borne two children. Eads later described being pregnant as "the best and the worst (time) in my life," as he was thrilled by the feeling of having another life grow inside him, but was also disgusted by the fact that his pregnancy made him as a trans man feel even more "trapped" inside his female body. He divorced his husband after the birth of their second son, and presented for some time as a lesbian, though he would later point out that he always viewed his attraction to women as the product of being a heterosexual man rather than a homosexual woman.
