Listen in to hear Rae share:
Their experience growing up adopted into a family of evangelical christian missionary puppeteers
The evolution of their identity from bisexual to queer to non binary
The relief of coming out as non binary
Why not everyone in your life needs to know all the ins and outs of your identity and how you can prioritize safety when coming out
How gender exists on a spectrum, not just two categories of male and female
Why they are having top surgery and how they came to this decision
Why they use they/them pronouns and why pronouns matter
Why it’s inaccurate to refer to someone’s pronouns as their “preferred pronouns”
How they are working to take the suffering out of transitioning for trans people
