Over the past year, I've experienced a heightened sense of fear and instability as a transgender man living in an increasingly hostile political climate. Policies, rhetoric, and public discourse have contributed to real-world consequences for my safety and well-being.

I had to, since my husband and I made the unusual decision to return to the city long before our kids fled the nestthe local schools weren't safe for our trans 11-year-old.
