Something a lot of people don’t know about me is that my transition started the day I failed to parallel park correctly in front of a man standing outside my apartment complex. This is more common than people think! Something like 38% of trans men cite the inciting incident of their transition as being watched while failing to parallel park correctly. There’s no shame in it, and I wish we made more room for that conversation in our community.
If You Can't Parallel Park You Have To Transition
I thought I was the only one who took such pride in my parallel parking skills that I offered to parallel park other people's cars for them.
