Today marks not only the start of a new year but also a new start for me and the first day of the rest of my life. After spending the last 4 or 5 years in varying degrees of in the closet and after a lengthy and tear-filled conversation with my mum this afternoon, I’m about to post this photo to fb with a short explanation of who I am and what it means to be trans for all to see, and I’ll soon be following that up with an email to my work supervisor. If 2016 showed us one thing it’s that life is incredibly short and can be snuffed out at a moments notice, so why spend one more day suppressing comfort, happiness, and sanity. Here’s to a better 2017 for all of us 💋💖

Reinforcing the male gaze – or, is it empowerment?

If it makes you feel conflicted, maybe it helps to remember that it’s her choice and right to appear in Playboy. As the woman she is. 

I see it more as empowerment, in this instance. Since it’s being positively covered, maybe it will help empower other trans individuals on their own journey. Hopefully, by letting society-at-large see her as the woman she is, and as a physically beautiful woman at that, Ines will help others see us as human. 

Hopefully. Because we’re not to be outcast, feared, mocked. We are to be recognized, respected, protected.

At the very least, we’re to be ignored, so that we can go on about our lives with the same liberty and freedom many others enjoy. 

You can appreciate us too, though. You can celebrate us. You can enjoy us. Not only because we’re trans, but because we’re human. 

Enjoy.

2010/2017 📷 I typically post old/vs/new pics to remind myself how much I’ve changed and grown. This one I like because it reminds me how much in a lot of ways I’m still the same as I ever was. By some weird coincidence these pics were taken the same day 7 years apart, 25 vs 32. I guess I like stripey shirts.
