unlabelledView post →I was 12 the first time I truly identified with a movie character. It was Agrado in Almodóvar's All About My Mother. She is warm and kind, depicted in a beautiful way, yet she's a sex worker surrounded by violence, drugs, and AIDS. Trans kids need normal, relatable trans characters.
