PRIDE MONTH QUOTE 10: Alok Vaid-Menon
Wednesday, June 19, 2024
How are you supposed to be believed about the harm that you experience when people don’t even believe that you exist?
The assumption is that being a masculine man or a feminine woman is normal, and that being ‘us’ is an accessory. Like if you remove our clothing, our makeup, and our pronouns, underneath the surface we are just men and women playing dress-up.
- Alok Vaid-Menon, “Beyond the Gender Binary”
