{{Personal story | |||
| quote = There's a real pressure on nonbinary folks to present a front of absolute security and certainty about their identities.You have to project confidence at all times, so no one ever has the space to question your gender. And I think that's too bad, really, because we run the risk of putting more importance on certainty than we do on exploration. The only times we can be vulnerable is with other queer people, who understand that gender is a journey and a process. | |||
