Hello everyone,

I'm new to the fediverse so please bear with me. My name is Elise and I'm a 40 years young transgender woman from rural Canada.

The environment I grew in was pretty oppressive for anyone queer and racism has always been rampant here. I was raised evangelical mennonite, but was into reading about science, history and philosophy. Needless to say I questioned everything from an early age and eventually abandoned the church in spite of having a natural aptitude for ministry.

I spent my childhood bottling up a lot of feelings as I wasn't in a safe place to come out. The church was overtly homophobic and schooling rampant with bullying. It took me awhile to get to a place where I could find adequate healthcare and resources to transition. In spite of Canada being one of the safest countries in the world for trans folks there's not enough resources for transgender people and back in the 00's it was almost impossible to access proper care.

In the interim I did my best to pursue an education all while battling severe depression, gender dysphoria, CPTSD, ADHD and multiple eating disorders. I hold bachelor's degrees in Arts and Social Work. Though I have had many barriers to employment early in my transition I still value my education and apply it to my current work as a bookseller. My political beliefs are rooted in anti oppressive work, prison abolition, trade unionism and I identify as anarcho syndicalist. My idols include Angela Davis, Noam Chomsky, Leonard Pelletier and Amy Goodman. They helped shape my political views along with my old web haunts raisethefist.org, unamerican.com, infoshop.org and alternet.

I'm in a better place now and managed to find healing and recovery through art. Spoken Word Poetry, dance, Burlesque and theater being my main outlets that helped lift me up from hitting rock bottom early in my transition. It is my hope is that future generations of transgender people need not suffer what I went through as a child and I fight like hell for the rights of my kin.

Hope to meet some more like minded folks here who are into politics, activism and weirdo performance art. Feel free to HMU if you're interested in chatting.
