"23-year-old transgender model Stav Strashko is proud of her body. But she needs you to know something: unlike many other transgender people in the media, she has no plans for gender reassignment surgery. Let her explain.
The Israeli-born model recently told Teen Vogue,
I do consider myself a trans person. By definition, transgender doesn't include only those who have had surgery; it's just someone who identifies with another gender. But I never wanted to go through the surgery — I feel comfortable in my body. I have a boyfriend who loves me the way I am. I don't want to change anything.""
I really like that a public transgender figure is coming out as non-op and proud.
