This fits into my online life. I generally like to dress up in make-up that has to do with either who I am as a person, how people in the LGBTQ community can see me. So I'm transgender, and I have the flag represented in make-up on my body. This was for transgender the day of disability. [...] The whole make-up thing—like when I first came out as transgender, there was a whole lot of issues about the make-up thing because widely through the transgender community trans guys should not wear makeup because we're trying to portray the cis-gender of being male. That's something that I've always fought with myself whether or not I should portray that certain part of me and what backlash that'll cause. But then there's part of me that uses this as my canvas. This is who I am to show what I can do and it's a fight, it's a constant fight." – Anonymous
