Today’s question hits hard for many in our community: Have you experienced misgendering or denial in healthcare?

I share my story of accessing gender-affirming care through a specialty clinic and why I have often chosen not to center my own positive experience, because I know so many of our stories are rooted in harm, denial, and dysphoria. But visibility = possibility™. If sharing my journey helps someone else find affirming care, then it matters. Let’s talk about advocacy, privilege, and how to care for our whole selves—even the parts we struggle with.

Visibility = Possibility™️

Drop your reflections below: Have you had a gender-affirming healthcare experience? Know of a gender clinic in your city? Share it so others can find support too.
