My project is based on my own experience as a trans person and how I view my body as well as how others view my body. I’m often told that gender-affirming care is “mutilation” and that I need to present or act a certain way to truly be trans, but I’ve learned to look those negative comments in the eyes and actively defy them. Trans people of all kinds have always been here and will forever be here we’ve been through too much to back down against people and policies of prejudice and oppression.
