in this episode, Savannah and Julie both come to the mic with the same topic... that of a gender diverse person as feeling "trans enough". Referring to a listener's Facebook post on the same topic and the resulting comments to the post, Savannah and Julie tackle the question, "What determines what is trans enough?". While the galaxy of gender diversity goes so far and wide of simply being 100% masculine or 100% feminine, many feel it is their responsibility to determine another person's level of trans-ness. Of course, we all want to find our LGBTQ+ tribe and to be validated for how we feel about ourself as folx using the art of crossdressing to express our gender identity. But, when that external validation may turn to invalidation, it is the responsibility of each of us to discover and embrace however our diversity shows up and realize... we are all TRANS ENOUGH!
