I Was Trans in an LGBT-Unfriendly School System

<p>People always talk about how they&rsquo;re shocked when partners, friends, or colleagues come out as trans. Maybe it&rsquo;s because I&rsquo;m trans/non-binary myself, but I&rsquo;ve never been surprised.</p> <p>A lot of friends come out to me. When people tell me they&rsquo;re trans or LGBTQIA, I just blink and say, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s about damn time. So, when do we shop for new clothes? When do I meet your partner?&rdquo;</p> <p>The truth is, most cisgender people are blissfully unaware of the strange inner battles a queer person like me faces. This is doubly true for kids at school. The signs are often there, but no one ever seems to notice unless they&rsquo;re facing it, too.</p> <p><a href="https://pinkhairandpronouns.com/i-was-trans-in-an-lgbt-unfriendly-school-system-ab5ea4244dea"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
