“As soon as the age of 7 I knew my soul wasn’t intertwined with my body. I looked at girls with envy because I knew I was a girl inside. I would pray to god that one day I would wake up as a girl. I’m lucky enough to live in United States, where we are able go after our dreams and what we desire. However, my family would disown me and never speak to me again if and when I decide to transition. They will never know the pain I deal with on a daily basis living as a boy. I’m free but I’m not free. I won’t make it out there financially as of now. I have to do this, for every single trans woman that has been killed, that have killed themselves and most importantly for me.”
