Will told a story about coming out to his son, and their changing relationship as he went from Mom to Dad.

“I’m grateful that I lived as a woman for 40 years before transitioning to live as a man. Though that does not mean we should force trans people to live in their assigned sex. I am proud to be a man who has given birth and breastfed. Those things did not make me feel gender dysphoria; those were the only times before transition when I felt connected to my body.  That is true, and it is true that removing my breasts and taking testosterone were lifesaving. I love that I am a man who has experienced motherhood and all the connection and complexity that brings.”
