To take another example:

I didn’t know what a trans person was 20 years ago. The first time I encountered the idea it sounded like something silly and attention getting— why over complicate gender! Over time I realized I’d never considered what it would be like to feel totally at odds with the gender I was assigned. But I also uncovered and healed trauma that came from my own moments not fitting in. I studied. I learned.

I don’t have an agenda. I’m trying to do my best that is all. For real.
