It’s vital that young trans people understand that they can have a future
not can, do and will. it shouldn’t be a “maybe”, because it’s not. It’s a definite thing - young trans people **have** a future, and we need to guide and lead them into it with open hearts and open minds
For anybody doubting this - please look at this photobook of older trans adults, who have not only survived, but thrived. You do have a future. You just have to believe in yourself.
