Cynthia Nixon defends LGBTQ+ rights: “I am here today as the mother of a proud trans man”
My wife and I, our lives are filled with the most amazing, beautiful, brave trans people – young and old, but especially young.My trans kid had his top surgery at NYU a number of years ago.
His doctors were fantastic. His surgeon was the best we could’ve imagined.And the idea that this city is filled with young people who thought they had a place to go where they can receive the highest care – and that place has now been shut to them, sickens me.
Sickens me to my core.I want to say, the last two weeks have been an assault, a barrage, so many horrific things coming at us from every direction.But since the Inauguration, and I would say since the election, nothing has made me feel so good as coming around the corner today and seeing you all standing here fighting for trans rights.Because what is happening all over this country, it cannot happen here in New York.
Here is where we have to take a stand.
