[H]eteronormativity and patriarchy all trickle down into different cultures. For a long time, you had to look a certain way or you didn't get to be successful as a non-male skater. I just got to a point where I was like, well fuck it then I'll just get a job. I'm gonna keep skating my whole life but if you don't like me, fuck too bad, because I'm not going to conform to whatever shit. That is the essence of what going against the grain feels like because I feel like I'm swimming upstream and I have to dress like fucking feminine or I don't get support. Well, oh surprise, I'm fucking trans so none of that is happening!
