Overview

This is the story of Dee McWatters, a father, husband, wine industry professional, volunteer firefighter, and hockey referee, who appeared to be living an ordinary life in small-town British Columbia. Beneath the surface, she carried decades of secrecy, shame, and confusion, never able to name the ache that followed her through childhood, relationships, and career. With raw honesty and sharp humor, Sorry I Was Such a D!ck, When I Had One! traces Dee's messy, liberating journey toward authenticity. From purging closets to coming out in hockey rinks, from the heartbreak of loss to the joy of finally being seen, Dee takes readers on a roller coaster of unmasking, unbecoming, and beginning again. This isn't just a transition story, it's a story about claiming truth, finding gender joy, and refusing to live one more day as someone you're not.
