On the way to a meetup with wonderful trans women yesterday, my mom called with a #TransJoy story that I had to share.

Her good friend’s daughter B. has a 4-year-old. On the way to school last week B. noticed they were looking extremely sad, asked what was wrong, and her kid said “I just wish I had a magic wand that could make me a girl.”
Right away, B. simply answered “You don’t need a magic wand. If you want to be a girl, you can just be a girl.”
She told the teachers when they arrived, everyone was immediately supportive, and now B’s daughter is out as a girl and filled with joy that she can be herself. Quick as that, no ridicule, no gatekeeping, no hesitation.

You can just be a girl. :QueerCatHeart_Trans:
