On this #TransAwarenessWeek let’s celebrate ourselves as trans people. What would you tell your younger self about how things turned out for you so far?
I'd probably tell my younger self that - longer or shorter - my haircut hasn't appreciably changed in 35 years.
(Self, if you like) ID: Me, at 21... nearly working out how to smile for the camera.

I would NOT tell my 15 year old self that I'm a professor at a university, cos their dream lay elsewhere, but also they probably would've said 'did you have to read a lot of books for that?'
I would NOT show them this, to avoiding alarming them that 56 years later, they're still rambling.
Though, in all honesty, I think they'd be amazed that they're still alive at 56.

I'd tell them to wear fewer hats indoors, and to avoid going blonde. But of course, they wouldn't have listened to me... quite right too.
