* Felix ever after* Felix clung unto the concept

* Felix ever after*
Felix clung unto the concept of reincarnation, ‘I had dreams, sometimes—dreams where I’d be in a different body, the kind of body society says belongs to men.’ It was at the tender age of twelve, after reading a book with a trans character in it called “I AM J” by Cris Beam, when Felix realised that he was a man. Felix was ten when his mother went to live with his stepfather and stepsister, and the only email he successfully sent to her was when he told her he was a transgender boy. Felix said that it took him a year before his father agreed to let him see a doctor for hormonal changes. Basically, Felix owed all his physical transition to his father, but he was still upset that his father refused to call him by his new name.
His father requested that Felix keep a few pictures of his former self ‘for the memories, you never know if you’ll want to remember who you used to be one of these days.’ Felix still has them stored in his Instagram social media account. At the end of this chapter, we know he has successfully hidden those pictures from public viewing but still yet, he has this nudging bad feeling that something was going to go wrong, and that leaves him wondering if actually he really is the Felix Love that he has wholesomely embraced.
As Felix still battles within himself concerning his poor background and his desire to go into the best schools despite his poor background in Chapter Three (page 24 to 32), he talked in detail how he asked Marisol out on a date:
Don’t forget, you can ask for a copy of the book.

Never think that because of who you are or the way

Never think that because of who you are or the way you look that you are less worthy of love and appreciation than somebody else. Everybody on this earth is given the opportunity for peace and never let that be taken away from you. #wherinitiative #quotes #love #quoteoftheday #motivation #life #quote #instagram #motivationalquotes #inspiration #instagood #lovequotes #follow #like #quotestoliveby #poetry #inspirationalquotes #quotestagram #lifequotes #success #quotesdaily #art #quotesaboutlife #quotesoftheday #happy

Hello ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between!

Hello ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between! Seeing that consent has been “The” topic for a hot minute now, WHER Initiative is elated to bring you “The Consent and Healthy relationships” workshop. Here, you’ll learn or re-learn the meaning of consent and coercion. This workshop will also explore the connection between healthy sexual behaviours and safe relationships through discussions of boundaries and yellow lights (areas where lack of consent is not understood and/or times that consent is unclear), identifying the difference between healthy and unhealthy behaviours in a relationship, considering boundaries in relationships, and practicing healthy communication skills. It is definitely where you want to be! What are you waiting for? reserve your spot as limited spaces are available for effective social distancing. Cheers!

Non-binary: a gender identity that falls outside of the gender binary, meaning an individual does not identify as strictly female or male.
A non-binary person can identify as both or neither male and female or sometimes one or the other. Nonbinary folks also don’t think of their gender as falling along a spectrum with the two poles of male and female at either end. Instead, nonbinary people identify with the more fluid aspects of gender identity and a boundless range of possible gender identities.
