SELF-LOVE
“I’m a trans woman, and before I
transitioned, I would look in the
mirror and be like, I don’t know
this person. Now, I actually feel
like I’m seeing myself. For me,
though, the concept of beauty is
more of a mindset. I love myself;
my wife loves me. Knowing that
makes me feel beautiful.”
