“...declaring your right<br />

to live in a body<br />

that matches your soul,<br />

to take courage,<br />

is the utmost self-love.”<br />

Self-love is overlooked in a myriad of ways. In fact, the<br />

terms “self-love” <strong>and</strong> “loving yourself” seem to only follow<br />

examples of the safe, “PC”, <strong>and</strong> honestly, superficial, when<br />

discussed <strong>with</strong>in the general public. Self-love messaging,<br />

in my experience, is often framed as toxic positivity where<br />

we are ignoring, repressing, <strong>and</strong> completely dismissing<br />

our feelings <strong>and</strong> mental health. I wish that unconventional<br />

methods of self-love were explored <strong>and</strong> talked about<br />

more <strong>with</strong>out shame or fear of retaliation <strong>and</strong> ridicule.<br />

For example, I’ve been bombarded <strong>with</strong> the message that<br />

gender-affirming care is a form of self-mutilation; however,<br />

through my own lived experiences, as well as viewing the<br />

lives of others, I realized that message couldn’t be further<br />

from the truth. It isn’t a thought fueled by a lack of selflove<br />

but the very opposite – declaring your right to live<br />

in a body that matches your soul, to take courage, is the<br />

utmost self-love. Our body is the only thing we truly own<br />

<strong>and</strong> so it’s important to take care of it; mentally, physically<br />

<strong>and</strong> sexually. Gender affirming care is self-care <strong>and</strong> so is<br />

sexual health!
