Colette has identified as a girl since she was 2, old enough to talk.

​

As a younger child – and even now to a degree – she just took it in stride that her body was one way and her gender identity was another.

She is a little rambunctious child... and she happens
to be transgender.

​

We noticed that she was so much happier when she had dresses on that we would joke that we should never take them off of her!

I think our daughter is elated to be expressing herself as a trans girl.

​

I have no idea if this how she will always feel, but she claims that's the case. She can't wait for her hair to grow and enter kindergarten as a long-haired girl.

Other people’s ignorance
is not an excuse to mistreat the transgender community.

​

Around 2.5yrs old, the twins were both starting to talk more and had begun identifying/ separating themselves and other people out by their gender.

It took me a long time to find the words to express it,

​

but I realized in elementary school that I was different from the other girls my age.

Nicole will be who she is and as a parent I’m just along for the ride.

​

At age two and a half, I recognized that Nicole, who has an identical twin Hannah, had a preference for toys and clothes traditionally thought of as boy toys and clothes. 


NICOLE, 8, CALIFORNIA

I was very happy finally living as a boy, and I felt right.

​

I felt free, and I felt like me for a change.
