I absolutely believe in assimilation. I don't believe I'm any different from straight people. My wants and needs are the same as theirs. I don't look at sexual orientation as that big of a deal. It's just an orientation.

People who don't have gender dysphoria aren't going to catch it by watching me dance on television.

I thought, transgender people are much worse off than I am. That's why they're willing to risk everything to be who they are. But the older I got, the harder it got to stay in my body.

It really bothers me when I see people doing my mother in drag. I mean, just imagine if you saw people doing that with your mother.

I've been embraced by a new community. That's what happens when you're finally honest about who you are; you find others like you.
