Want to Read $ 9.99"Being trans is fine, it's the world that's the problem. And that's what people don't seem to get. There are loads of us as well. Whether you make room for us or not, whether you accept us or not, whether you include us or not, we're still going to be here. And us existing doesn't take anything away from you or make your life more difficult. Making space for me doesn't mean you have to give up your seat."-L.D. Lapinski, Jamie
