Hello, My name is Nad Salaam, I’m a transfeminine non-binary gender non-conforming immigrant writer and a queer creative spirit among many other identities, I share these identities with you only to give a perspective about MY transness (You're welcome) and to help you understand the difficulties of transitioning and having body autonomy as a gender non-conforming person.

I got diagnosed with gender dysphoria in the Netherlands as only one step of multiple trans medicalist systems steps that I will never be able to conform to as a non-binary person surviving a transphobic system that acknowledge my gender dysphoria but do nothing about it, just because I'm gender non-conforming and want to have authority of my own body to transition on my own terms, I don't want to be on HRT as I was already on and off HRT for around 10 years, all of it was self-medication in one of the most patriarchal countries in the world, so moving from a horrible system to another horrible new system did not give me the freedom to be authentic and to be myself as a gender non-confroming person and not be dehumanized shun me away from medical institutions that I need medical care from.

If you don't understand it, then it's not meant for you to understand, so please keep any insecure, cissexist, transmedicalist comments to yourself, and just give me the space to be vulnerable.

I’m aiming to fundraise for my FFS (facial feminization surgery), among other procedures and surgeries that are gender affirming to me as a transfeminine enby

With that being said I do recognise that in our current times a lot of peoples and minorities globally are being oppressed surviving war and famine, so please consider donating to these causes as well I feel privileged to even being finally able to ask for your support with my transitioning publically and I promise to help other trans people with their transition as well.

Nad Salaam
