It is revolutionary for any trans person to choose to be seen and visible in a world that tells us we should not exist.

I was assigned male at birth, is the way I like to put it, because I think... we're born who we are... and the gender thing is something someone imposes on you. And so, I was assigned male at birth, but I always felt like I was a girl.

I'm so grateful that I had the luxury of transitioning in private. Because when you transition in the public eye, the transition becomes the story.

There are lessons in everything. The bad, the good. Our job is to listen, and to continue to learn, so that maybe we get better at this. Maybe get better at life.

If you have a problem with people living their lives and being authentically who they are, you really should go and do some soul-searching.

The preoccupation with transition and with surgery objectifies trans people, and we don't get to really deal with the real lived experiences.
