    They’d have to shoot me before I will ever deny my own womanhood. Not even with a gun to my head would I call myself a man. I lived in a closet for 18 years and it nearly killed me. It damaged me in ways I have to live with forever. I am a woman. They can say whatever the fuck they want it won’t change that. I will not bow my head. If it comes to it, I’ll die with my back straight, proud of who I am.

      Proud of you, but seriously, be careful? Emigrate to a country where people are treated like humans, perhaps? You might even be able to request asylum.

      Just don’t get yourself killed because some psycho said something stupid

      Glad you’re here. As a fellow LGBTQ+ card carrying member, we are going to keep fighting even harder. Let this presidency radicalize you.

      You have a lot of allies who feel similarly about being forced to be cruel to people we love and care about. Let’s live through these terrible times with our humanity intact.
