“All women have a complicated relationship to beauty, but as a transgender woman it’s a bit more complicated. There’s a lot of pressure to appear feminine. When I was younger, I was most insecure about my size, my angular features, my feet, my hands. . . . At the end of the day, it’s about being comfortable in your own skin, and being able to walk down the street and not have people question your gender — and, for me, being perceived as a woman.”
