Just to put things in reference... it was 5 years ago today that I came out publicly as trans and everything changed. #NationalComingOutDay
Love to folks who can live openly as who they are, all those yearning too and all those who may never get a chance to. #NationalComingOutDay
I spoke at Hofstra University last night & a young trans girl thanked me for being the only other trans woman on campus for those few hours.
I was floored, but her story as the only out trans woman mirrored my college experience and my HS experience.
Coming out is a radical act for many. The price of visibility can be immense. Never ever take anyone’s journey to loving themselves lightly.
It’s never too early or too late. Your life is yours.
