Another corner turned, a happy affirmation

This week was so pleased when the woman who organizes and facilitates a monthly discussion group texted me this:

QuoteHello Sadie! My co-facilitator and I will be out of town the night of discussion group this month (July xx). Would you by any chance be around to facilitate the discussion?

This is a group that's been meeting monthly for more than 15 years. While there's certainly no reason a trans woman shouldn't, facilitate, it surely feels validating to have her ask me to cover.

Thanks Gail! I've been hearing about anti-trans backlash in the lesbian community and have experienced a small amount of that myself, however it's b3n dwarfed by the impressive support and acceptance I've received.

Moni, thanks so much! Affirmation from someone I'm so proud to know and call a friend means a lot.
