I’m breathless now, looking back at all the ways you would not back down from survival.
Denying the existence of transgender and nonbinary people is not ‘scientific.’
"Human beings are not just the sum of their biology."
When they misgendered you at your memorial.
"You never lived to see the day when your life didn’t require a disclaimer — instead, your death now required one, too."
My parents and I survived my ‘Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria.’ This is our story.
I wish I had the Perfect Transgender Narrative™ to convince you of my validity. But I don’t.
Yes, I have a ‘mental disorder.’ But it’s not being transgender.
Many of the people who still insist that being transgender is a 'disorder' don’t actually care about our mental health.

When you create a definition of transgender that relies on gatekeeping, the door is wide open for friendly fire.
Transgender people shouldn’t have to lie about their mental health. But many do.
