Though I have always loathed my existence now that I have started transitioning I loathe it a little less. Your writing always feels like it was just shot out of my own skull. The deep emotion that I felt within this piece has been what I have felt for the past week and it hit me square in the chest.

Your writing always encourages me to pick up the pen. After reading something like this it makes me happier to be a transgender woman, our experience is a special thing. Not shared by many others, it makes feeling understood like I do now all the more valuable.

I feel like the ‘not like the others’ section a lot more than I wanted to

this was wonderful — it’s always a delight to have someone give voice to the things i’ve been feeling. (also, have you considered sharing this on tumblr? it would do numbers i think)

Absolutely resplendent work! Touching in a uniquely human way, like a warm embrace with words, you are a talent among talents :)
