Happy #TDOV, always⚔️
Constantly conflicted about my scars, so here’s a beautiful dedication to them thanks to @kurtzland from their project called FORGED. In this series, trans men are rendered in full armor: luminous, grounded, unyielding. This series reclaims the imagery of protection and strength, placing trans bodies in positions of power rather than scrutiny.
Each portrait reflects the process of becoming: The armor is both metaphor and mirror, a symbol of resilience, of crafting oneself against a world that so often misreads the form.
This month also marks 10 years into my medical transition. I am living proof that letting kids transition can be the right choice. We know who we are, and we know what we’re doing.
Visible for those who can’t be and proud of those who live their lives in stealth, thanks for reading🏳️⚧️
