Today, I straddle the borders of being not comfortable in women's spaces, yet not being fully seen as trans, with growing patience and acceptance for my own truth. Today, my rejuvenated spirit has learned to breath under pressure. Today, I live in a liminality that is on neither side of the binary but all encompassing and surpassing it. "Both man and woman," I am all and none of these things. I've always lived in this space, and am grateful that language is slowly emerging for folks who feel this way. Occupying this space is a constant coming-out process...
