"Dear [[Cisgender|cis]] people who put your [[pronouns]] on your “hello my name is” name tags: '''Thank you.''' When you do that, I feel more comfortable putting my pronouns — they/them. I feel more comfortable being visibly out as nonbinary.

"It's been a long, slow road to this version of me. It's taken a long time and a LOT of experiments, a lot of wardrobe changes, a lot of trial and error. And I'm still changing all the time, still seeking ways to become the most 'me' I can be. I had really excellent teachers who inspired me while I was [[coming out]] and coming into butchness and queerness, which really helped. I have very supportive parents and siblings, and I've always been very stubborn about doing my own thing and expressing my own way, since I was young. I've leaned on the many communities I've been a part of, and have felt so supported and lifted up by the generosity — I've learned so much by being part of communities and groups."<ref name="butc_AnIn">{{Cite web |title=An Interview with Sinclair Sexsmith: A Very Sexy Butch Wordsmith |author= |work=ButchOnTap |date=22 September 2014 |access-date=9 April 2020 |url=https://butchontap.com/an-interview-with-sinclair-sexsmith-a-very-sexy-butch-wordsmith/ | "It's been a long, slow road to this version of me.
