Words from another of our founders, Patrizia on what it means for her to wear gender-affirming clothing:
==============
Previously, clothes were just something with which to cover up and keep myself warm. As I came out and started presenting as myself, my feelings towards my appearance and clothing started to change.I began to place less value on efficiency in shops. I appreciated the design, cut, and form of the clothes I was buying. They now feel like a genuine expression of my style; I feel more confident and enthusiastic, which makes life more vibrant and enjoyable.
I want everybody to be able to feel this same ability to express and feel comfortable with themselves.

A few words from one of our founders, Vee, on the importance of gender-affirming clothing:
==============
Clothing is its own way of speaking, its a way of communicating your personhood just much as any of our words are.Being forced to wear the wrong clothes is like being forced to be a speak a language you dont understand. Always feeling like a stranger in a strange land. When I was able to dress for myself it was like I had finally started to learn how to speak. And I was able to speak myself into being.
