“Why should I force myself through unnecessary pain just to fit? To interact with the world in a way someone else considers real and correct? I’m happy.” She shakes her head. “I don’t need to walk through their world in pain just to have them look at my body with pity. My body - that’s not my self.

“Maybe it doesn’t have to be a choice between limited interaction in our world full of pain,” Una continues, “or less pain here but interaction that’s … limited differently. We can change it."
