This is one of my favorites in the last year or so. If I have done a better one about being Trans I can’t remember it. Running with boys and knowing full well you aren’t……and being unable to run with the girls is a difficult thing to share with people. As usual my pencil is better at it than my vocabulary.
It is delightful that things that made me so incredibly miserable for 40 years are now fun to put on paper. I know my students don’t believe me when I say it, but things really do get better. Of course in the moment nothing could mean less than that promise.
