Not pain nor rain could keep us from visiting the Defiant Girl after my first physical therapy appointment today. It felt significant and powerful and I let the gravity of the moment wash over me along with the sky. Photo by @williedictionary ❤️????? *Edit: It has been brought to my attention that “when we say the future is female we leave out our trans and queer family”. Great and important point. As a woman whose “femaleness” prevented me from medical care, insurance coverage, and trust from multiple doctors, and whose “femaleness” slowly destroyed my body and life and broke my heart, I NEEDED this shirt today as I walked through excruciating pain in the rain to a very scary first appointment. My actions and words will always be open to feedback and will always be fighting for the inclusion of all my non-cis women and queer family. Let’s keep the dialogue open yet compassionate, so we can be better and inclusive while also supporting each other through our private and painful journeys
