A thought experiment regarding representation. THIS WEEK: If you make a movie about a trans woman being assaulted by a cis man, you're saying all trans women will be assaulted. If you make a movie about a trans woman being accepted by a cis man, you're saying all trans women will be unconditionally accepted. In short: the compounding interest of mass storytelling in a world full of minorities desperate for representation presents a unique challenge for young storytellers. ALSO: Christmas day doubts, not having family to go home to, dealing with questions asked by a doubtful uncle, and a renewed sense of purpose as 2018 promises big changes for this budding trans woman.
