Share a story about someone who had a positive impact on your life.

Naya Rivera and Heather Morris. I was raised Catholic and because of that never felt comfortable with my sexuality. When I saw Santana and Brittany portrayed in Glee though – it made me feel seen and confident enough to accept who I was and to come out not to long after.

What does freedom mean to you?

Freedom to me means to not have someone trying to govern over my body and mind. To allow me to make my own decisions and live how I want to live – so long as I’m not hurting anyone. What it means is for me to be able to live and love freely, without religion or my government trying to tell me otherwise. As someone who was AFAB – it means having the rights to my own body and to be able to make the decisions that I want about it.
