TRANSLATION:"In the beginning, when I was little I'd ask my mum what would have happened if I were born a boy. I'd ask that question as a child but I was afraid of telling her: "Mum, I don’t identify as a girl, I feel more like a boy."I think that's why it took me so long to freely express how I felt or identified as". "I used to harm myself. I'd put my own body at risk. That led me down the path of self-destruction".
