Thank you for all you did and all you are still doing, and for being a role-model for younger trans kids, and a good example to politicians what their policies might mean.
I was part of the Perl community. One conference, 10 trans people attended. Out of 300 attendees, that is quite a percentage. One guy said "awesome, I see 3 transgender people". I replied "I saw 10". He asked "can you point them out?". Nope, I did not want to, because they deserved to pass.
