Tweet by "Cassie reads banned books", @PrissyCassie@birdsite I really like this explanation. Overly simplistic, but still accurate. (black heart, trans flag) (Photo of a tin can labeled "seet peas". The can is open and one can see that it is filled with carrots instead of peas.) This is what it is like to be transgender,. Sometimes the wrong label just ends up on the wrong product. There's nothing wrong with the label itself, and there is nothing wrong with what's inside the can... they just don't match because a mistake happened. Yet at the end of the day the part that matters is what is INSIDE the can. No amount of denial or stubbornness will make those carrots into peas.
