Trans Birthdays
Summary
Birthdays can be rough for many people, but they can be extra difficult for trans people pre-transition... because why is a waking death worth celebrating? We discuss how tough they were, and how discombobulating it was during transition when that all started to change. Storyboard artist Nazul "Suli" Sobrino joins us to discuss how there's so many good things, and sometimes there's no other option. Why would you give a five year old a mug for a gift? Persistence in existence is resistance.
