I don't post too many of my project photos here any more as I'm not sure
LUGGers really want to see them, but this is important.

"I got active in the Transgender Day of Visibility [event] because while
Day of Remembrance is important, I was really hungry to talk about
something other than death for trans."

"Growing up, I felt like I lived my whole life behind glass, and I wasn?t
allowed out and that really affected everything. Transitioning in part is
letting the glass down and that was really scary. I see positive changes
everywhere, I hear less anger from people, particularly from younger folks,
and certainly there are more support."

Orlando
