On Loving Herself "I think that I can get through anything and, for so long, I was afraid of my confidence. I was afraid people were going to say I was full of myself, I was cocky, arrogant, this and that. And I realise that it's better to be those things than to not love and value yourself." "Being transgender isn't a medical transition. It's a process of learning to love yourself for who you are." "I wouldn't change myself at all. Being transgender makes me who I am: a strong person, a confident person. Being transgender gives me my personality." "I've resigned myself to the fact that it will be awhile before I experience love. I'm okay. I'm a patient person. I can wait for my prince charming." "It's about learning to love yourself. That's really our main message, that everyone deserves to live their lives authentically, be treated equally and be loved as well." Image Source: Getty / Paul Zimmerman
