Welcome to transville, Donna! To you and your beautiful blonde hair, boys sneakers. I've come to think of gender and how it's mutated recently as the most universal of experiences: something everyone can wear and change as they wish, or perhaps not change as a symbol of stagnation or rest, or lack of creativity. Who knows/cares anymore. I'm just happy to see it falling under the spell of your pen, friend.
Great essay--oh the gender of things...
So powerful and beautiful, Donna!
Thank you so much, Jake!
That was wonderful , thank you.
Powerful. Thanks for more insight into your journey, and questions raised as I look at my different one.
Thank you for sharing your story, Donna! I really appreciate this and all of your writing. I will share with friends.
Thanks for your comments, everybody! I appreciate them a lot <3
Happy I finally discovered you on Substack. In the piece I was imagining you at Stuyvesant HS :). Miss you,
Luke
