I have only heard amazing things about you from your school and work at Minus 18. You can now live your life at peace with yourself and those around you. I hope we will be able to work together on the HEY grant we have been awarded and look forward to meeting you at the HEY grant introductions. We want to be sure we address the issues for everyone, be they GLBT or I.

I want to say how brave she is. But in doing so I’m acknowledging how sad the reality of our communities [both Jewish and general] are that in being true to herself requires courage: being true to one’s self should be simple, untraumatic and just normal behaviour.

I came out as trans* a year ago and I feel so much better now. It’s not always easy to accept who you are but you know what’s best for yourself and whatever people think about, just never give up. One day you’re the boy/girl you always wanted to be.

I hope hearing your story makes it easier for other trans people to find self-acceptance too.
