Hello! Welcome to my page. My name is Aims (they/them). I am non-binary/trans, queer and POGM (People of Global Majority).
For the last two years I have been giving myself a weekly injection of Testosterone to allow myself to see changes in a body, mind and soul that reflects my whole being. The first six months, I had no prescription as I had no health insurance at the time. I was living off the generosity of other queer marginalized humans because of lack of accessibility and resources.
I’ve been using they/them pronouns for over three years now and have been going by Aims for nearly two years.
My dream of living in a body that reflects more of my truest self every day is something I desire so deeply. In the future this means top surgery for me. The final step to being fully at home in my body and identity is having top surgery. My DDD chest is both a physical and psychological weight that causes me both back pain and emotional distress. The amount of euphoria that I would feel and the level of comfortability living in my body would improve. My quality of life living in a Queer/Trans/Non-Binary body would not only save me, but any other queer/trans children who then gets to witness a living trans/queer “elder.” The unfortunate reality is that once you hit 30, you are an elder because so many of us keeping dying so young…specifically queer and trans people of color.
I look forward to a life where I can live joyfully and fully in my post operation body. I want to be an example to queer youth and to each person I meet of what it means to thrive as a queer trans non-binary person. In a country that seeks to exterminate transgender people through the denial of health care and protective rights it is a miracle to live past 30. I want to be the trans elder that could have been the guide that I needed as a queer and closeted youth.
This is something I didn’t get to experience or know even existed as a child…I think about it often as to how differently my life would have been if I was to have trans and *outwardly* queer adults in my life as a young child…how much more gentle my life could have been if I had seen happy trans adults like me growing up? If I could have daydreamed or imagined my life like them through childhood, would my queer journey have been easier? Would my own internal biases changed due to exposure? Would my own internal transphobia been quieter? Would my families/friends? Would my family and friends known a truer version of myself through the years?
