“Here, I’ve cultivated my feminism. A big question for me has been: How do I carry my capacity for empathy in a masculine body–a body that often feels like it was built for destruction rather than compassion?”
“Without living among women who love me as much as they challenge me, I could not have come to terms with myself had they not pushed me to try–and, to a large extent, succeed. Because of the people I’ve met here, I live my life with a more expansive sense of gender. After Stanford, I hope to continue taking my liberal education to its logical conclusion–justice.”
