The New York Times has been featuring a series of personal stories called Transgender Lives.
Last week, it published a photographic essay titled 7 Young People on Their Views of Gender. I find some of the stories and insights here to be very powerful.
I first came across this article through a transgender friend on facebook who celebrated the NYT photographic essay because it featured one of their friends. I think these pieces are powerful in providing a platform for these voices and it is extremely insightful to hear from young people expressing how they conceptualize & learn about gender that differs from my own experience.
