"Janine, a self described displaced Polish American Hillbilly, grew up in the mountains of West Virginia, where life was beautiful—as long as she stayed within the lines. It wasn’t until after fifty that she began transitioning, as well as finding joy on the open road."
Growing up as a closeted trans girl, I experienced similar feelings of self-hatred and attempted to suppress them. I’ve talked a bit about my own personal experience in my web series,but I’ve not gone into full detail. Reading Yam’s thread, I felt inspired to do something similar.
