Despite it's name, the Golden Gate Girls/Guys (GGG/G) newsletter is almost entirely focused on the needs of MTF and transvestite readers. The address label on the first few issues reads "Golden Gate Girls."
In addition to a more professional look, Lou adds pairity to the information. If an issue would focus on passing tips for (trans)women, the next issue would focus on (trans)men.
