A Symbol of Self Love

“When I bought my first binder I saw it as a last ditch effort for survival, not as the beginning of living how I was meant to. I am eternally grateful and amazed that this deodorant-stained piece of cloth not only changed but saved my life. I look at it framed above my bed everyday and know I am one of millions of trans people capable of radical self love in the face of oppression.”
