==Quotes==
{{quote|If I had to [identify myself] in one little statement it would be: “A gender queer, faggot, and a queen, on the trans continuum, in a gender bending, gender blur kind of place.” But the words I relate to the most are probably “faggot” and “queen.” “[[Queer]]” would be more of a broader political identity.<ref name="wwfd" />}}
