"So, it is not as if transgender folk exist in a world where everyone else is cis female or cis male. There is in fact a spectrum of gender. And life gets complicated. It gets complicated to a point where we can't decide to choose which path to follow because every path we choose affects someone in one way or the other."

Erin's bravery and confidence inspired him in his own line of work, reminding him of the importance of empathy and acceptance. Her mom, Mrs. Kenton, a college professor, brought a different perspective to Erin's journey. As an educator, she knew the power of knowledge and understanding. She immersed herself in learning about transgender issues, attending conferences and workshops to make sure she could provide the best support to Erin and others who sought her guidance. Mrs. Kenton also used her position to create awareness on campus. She organized seminars and panels on LGBTQ+ rights, providing a safe and inclusive space for students to learn and grow. Erin would often join her mom during t

“I keep replaying it. I’m really sorry I kissed you like that with the windows down. I wasn’t thinking.” I swallow hard. He shouldn’t be sorry for kissing me. It’s okay for a couple to kiss at the red light. It happens all the time. “It’s not your fault, I’m lucky it was just coffee.” I say, but my voice is rough. “But… I’m scared it’ll happen again.

And then pens started moving. By the end of the week, Ethan had read over twenty stories. Each one gutted him. A trans girl’s poem about her childhood name feeling like a haunted house. A nonbinary student’s short story about a tree that only grew crooked when no one was looking. A gay student who wrote a letter to a father who never spoke again after he came out.

Call me sheltered, but I had no idea the world of LGBTQ+ existed until I started researching.
