PHOTOS: Male Schoolteacher By Day & Female Prostitute By Night


Born a man, Tylor is a transgender woman who moves between two distinct lives: one male, one female.
She considers herself lucky to have a teaching job. She says many transgender Guatemalans must make their livings solely as sex workers.
But she disguises her sexual identity to protect that position, and she, too, works as a prostitute at night at a bar.In the beginning it was out of necessity because I was still getting my teacher’s license,” she said. “But now, it’s also because it’s the only place that I can really be a woman.”
She said she would never want her students to know she works as a prostitute. “I try to make sure they never find out.”
Fearing repercussions, she would not allow The Associated Press to use her teacher name or interview others at the school
