Hey everybody! Today is International Lesbian Day.

I am Chloe, a Master student in applied physics and science education and communication and a board member of Compass.

Besides being a lesbian, I am also a transwoman, which has had an impact on being comfortable with my sexuality. I was always into women but before I started my transition, I never felt comfortable with having a relationship. Before I realized I was trans the idea of being with another woman always felt wrong, like my body was something wrong and that it would be the same for the person I would be with. Starting with the hormones and the changes it caused finally made me feel like myself and I no longer feel put off by my own body. Since then I have been feeling great and have an amazing girlfriend.

So, on this day, to all lesbians, celebrate yourself and your fellow lesbians!🌈♀️🏳️‍🌈
