A comfortable place

The young person in front of me in line at the Dollarama this morning made no attempt to disguise birth sex. Possibly 30, they had long hair tied in a pony tail. They wore mascara, had painted nails and slung a woman's purse over their shoulder. 

I see this type of variance often. It is not masquerading but rather finding a comfortable full time place on the spectrum.

No hiding or secret life required.

The young woman at the cash, who I know and is maybe my daughter's age, didn't flinch for there was no reason to.

As it's always been

The world does not function well and never has. I notice it more than ever because of lived experience and the chaos of our present era both...
