Why BeingTrans
In our own journeys, we noticed that there weren’t a lot of resources made for us.
Our lived experiences are very much influenced by our own unique cultures and communities, so we thought our resources should reflect that. We wanted something that was inclusive, accessible, and relatable. We want you to be able to see yourself in us.
That’s why we started this site.
We have a lot of resources here, from news articles about current events in the trans community to articles of personal journeys. We even have articles for people who want to go through some kind of medical transition but don’t know where to start. If you’re just starting out in your journey, we recommend checking out our “Know Yourself” section. If you’re looking for more specific info about hormones or surgeries, there’s also an entire section on those topics. If you want some ideas on how you can support a loved one in their journey, check out our “For Allies” section.
Most importantly, this is YOUR platform. If you’d like to contribute your own stories, suggestions, or add to our list of resources, we’d love to hear from you. Write us at hello@beingtrans.com.
We’re always looking to grow the BeingTrans community.
