We're honoring #TransDayOfRemembrance by celebrating trans life and these trans stories on the beauty and joy of love, reconnecting with Indigenous teachings and struggling toward a better future.
Love without a blueprint leaves room for unknown possibilities. @xoaiwrites spoke to seven trans people about how the pandemic has changed their relationships and how trans love has changed their lives.
