Trondheim Pride: Trans Joy

We have the pleasure of hosting one of Trondheim Pride's panels!

This time you are invited to a conversation on trans joy <3

When talking about transness, the conversation often centers on gloomy topics of transness - not without reason, research shows that trans people experience significantly worse living conditions than others.

This is why Trondheim Pride is devoting this evening to a conversation about the joys of being trans.

Trondheim Pride writes:

"We in Trondheim Pride think it is sad that the focus is so often on the difficulties of being trans when there are a lot of nice sides as well. Therefore we want we have a conversation about the nice and beautiful aspects of being trans. What is gender euphoria? Do you have any unique queer relationships thanks to you being trans? Are you more liberated in your gender expression or conceptualization after you came out? These are some examples of questions that will be raised."

Participants:
Laura Dale (she/her)
