A month or so later I went to a workshop called “A Gender Continuum.” It was held at a wonderful little LGBTQ+ education center called the YES Institute. My therapist had gently nudged me to go several weeks before I’d finally agreed. It wasn’t that I didn’t think attending would be a good idea—I knew it would be—it was that I was terrified of what it would elicit in me. What truths it would force me to confront. And wow, were my fears confirmed.
