The twin boys were identical in every way but one. Wyatt was a girl to the core, and now lives as one, with the help of a brave, loving family and a path-breaking doctor’s care.

I’ve been sober and drug-free for about a year and a half. My personal sobriety is something that’s really important to me, but I really don’t care if you drink/smoke/use drugs (although I get super uncomfortable if people are intoxicated around me,…
THIS is what i mean when i say i hate straight edge. sobriety is fucking awesome and i will always try my best to foster an environment for it. but i cannot and will continue to not support straight edge culture as a whole, sorry my sxe dudes!
completely agreed. i’ve believed the the loudest voices in straight edge rely on white, male and class privileges, but never seen it voiced anywhere else before. or at least not coherently expressed beyond a sentence in passing. i’m not sober now. i’ll drink socially once every few months. in high school i was sober, but didn’t claim straight edge. i didn’t even really know what straight edge was. i was involved with a substance-free club in my high school that focused on having fun without using, building self-confidence and educating children in our school system. we also went to a summer leadership camp that had the same goals. however, i won’t be listing the name of the organization, since after my last summer with them they began to encompass more moral and political stances into their program that i don’t feel comfortable with promoting. point being, i’m thankful i had a group of sober peers that didn’t claim straight edge. being supported in my sobriety in a non-agressive environment allowed me to develop healthy substance habits without being hardline and without participating in a culture that probably would driven me to shame myself for being a woman, shame my body, or, maybe even, become complicit in oppressing others or partake in oppressive behaviors.
