Gender affirming care is not just for trans folks. It is for everyone! And gender affirming care doesn’t have to mean surgery. It could mean wearing clothes that feel comfortable to you! And we dive deeper into this topic on this episode of Dem Bois Podcast. Today, my guest Nat Moghe shares their journey of navigating identity, community, and activism. They discuss the importance of visibility, mutual aid, and the need for intersectional discourse in the fight for trans rights.
