*I understand the first question because if people aren't sure of your gender then life is much more difficult. I knew a transsexual that was 6'3" and the size of a linebacker and it took her almost two years to finally find a job despite having two college degrees. I'm sure it was because people didn't know what to make of her and they were put off. Out in public some people would stare, gasp or walk away from her when she would get near them. She did eventually find work, but another transsexual that she knew helped her get it or she would still be unemployed.*

I love Kate. We put so much pressure on ourselves sometimes. And that’s okay if you can handle that. I find myself agreeing with a lot of Kate’s ideas. I just don’t care when it comes to myself. I’m just trying to save money and move to the beach lol. 💖

Gender is fluid....period. Some days I feel masculine. Some days I feel fem. Some days I wear blue jeans, other days I wear speedos. Go figure.

I really don't like Kate at all i think she's an unfortunate leading voice because she's so destructive. There are so many better role models and speakers that are more intersectional and accepting.
