Greetings fellow quest takers!

One year ago, trans women held an iconic topless protest outside the Scottish Parliament. I love it when trans women hold topless demonstrations. If they're arrested, the state must admit they're women. If they aren't, it exposes the obvious contradictions of defining trans women as legally male.

happy pride month <3

The girl with the dragon boy

Happy pride month to those who are proud

Happy pride month to those who are out

Happy pride month to those who are closeted

Happy pride month if you’re trying to figure yourself out

Happy pride month if you’ve known for years

Happy pride month to those who it’s their first

Happy pride month to those who have celebrated for years

Happy pride month to those who are afraid to celebrate

Happy pride month to those who will scream it from the rooftops

On Choice

We don't choose who we feel attracted to, but we can choose to pursue or not a relationship with a specific individual.

We can choose to be ourselves or to pretend being something we're not. And we can choose to remain in the closet or come out in the open.

And thanks to advancements in medicine, some people can also choose to be who they really are, which was impossible before, and that is beautiful.

Some day in the future nobody will have to pretend, or to remain hidden, and that too will be fantastic.

Until then, we still have a choice that nobody can make for us.

Happy Pride!
