I've been doing this work for 30+ years; I have a huge huge love for the trans community. I only want people to have what I have.”
• “That being said, I don't agree with the narrative today. It doesn't mean I hate trans people, or that I'm against the trans community. It means I have a different way of being. I don't want people to be angry at me; I want to coexist in the world. I don't want, because I'm trans, I get special things, or I get this.”

• “I had a sex change. Today people are taking on this identity choice of trans, go right ahead. That has nothing to do with what I did, what I want to achieve in the world and what I want people to see me as.”
• “I also call myself a transsexual, not transgender. That's also a point of contention. People think that I'm using an outdated word, or that I'm using things that aren't part of the community.”
• “This is what you need to see; We need to have different voices in this community. We do not agree on many things going on here, and it's important for the world to see that.”
