According to the NYT, we are inconsequential...

6 million Trans people having borders closed to us, having our identities erased, being eradicated from public life...

Some people leave clues, some don’t. There’s no right or wrong way to come out. People have to do it when it’s right for them and them alone.
If and when someone comes out as trans to you, try to make sure you...

If, like me, you overthink like you’re getting paid to do so, there are a few things that can kick that worry into hyperdrive. Someone you love coming out as trans is one of them.
