It’s, frankly, amazing to me how so much just *snaps into place* with transition.

It is, to me, the biggest thing non-trans people — even allies — don’t get. Our trans selves is who we are. We’re not becoming anything. We simply *are.*

So I wish everyone a joyous, and safe, Transgender Day of Visibility. Revel in the travels you have made, consider how far you may go — and celebrate each others journeys. #TDOV2023

I’m not gonna tell you it’s been an easy path, but it’s been a rewarding one. Much more than that, it’s been the *right* path. It is who I am.

Yes, I’d do it all over again. If anything, I’d likely be a bit bolder a second time. #TDOV2023

I’m one of those “classic” stories, I suppose. Had a strong inkling I was trans at age 3, knew the words by 10 or so (in the 1970s!). Transitioned in my 20s.

I’m now 55, and have lived as can openly trans woman for more years than I haven’t. Life… well, it’s good. #TDOV2023
