Embrace who you are, be you, be proud, be happy. But embrace those who aren't perfect examples of the transgender ideal. Be the woman or man you want to be and not a page out of Glamour or Men's Health. Be goth, punk, fat, old, preppy, a frat boy, a geek, a hippie, whatever. But don't look down and make others feel imperfect because they're country, butch, a hippie, a nerd, old, bald, or fat. Celebrate those who aren't society's perfect example of masculinity or femininity. Praise and enjoy our diversity and imperfections, or else we're just reinventing what we already had to suffer through.
Amen
