There are a lot of stories about trans pasts going around because of some incorrect and narrowminded comments about trans experiences.

-
There are but a handful of trans voices with a large platform. And those voices need to speak to power to secure freedom and equality.
-
I don't know if I'm a trans role model, but I'm trying to be the one I never had. And if that's not a shared experience, then what even is.
-
early on i determined that "role model" isn't the correct way to look at it, but to visibly exist & to encourage others too
-
I don't know that I see a distinction in those things.

I see what you mean by this but don't you think these stories can help younger trans folk who might feel alone?
-
Oh, I'm not saying don't tell the stories. Not at all.
-
I just don't want to spend time decluttering that quagmire when so many others are/have.
-
that's fair. And you shouldn't have to at all.
