“On May 29, 2014, the issue of Time magazine magazine which proclaimed the “Transgender Tipping Point” was revealed with me on the cover. June 1, 2015, a year and three days later, Caitlyn Jenner’s Vanity Fair cover was revealed proclaiming #CallMeCaitlyn. I am so moved by all the love and support Caitlyn is receiving. It feels like a new day, indeed, when a trans person can present her authentic self to the world for the first time and be celebrated for it so universally. Many have commented on how gorgeous Caitlyn looks in her photos, how she is “slaying for the Gods.” I must echo these comments in the vernacular, “Yasss Gawd! Werk Caitlyn! Get it!”
