"Exactly two years ago, I sat apprehensively in the reception area of the public health clinic in
San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood, waiting for my name to be called. If all went according
to plan, I would leave that evening with my first prescriptions for estradiol and spironolactone-
Day 1 on hormones. I had just come from work, and since only a handful of my colleagues knew
about my transition, I was still presenting as a boy (albeit an androgynous one wearing gold eye
shadow). I remember looking around the room at the other trans girls sitting nearby. I couldn’t
wait to be just like them- to have people see me as my true gender and to finally start feeling
comfortable in my body."
