Be a Transgender by Clémence Bouet

Abel is a 21 years old boy studying history in Paris. On the occasion of this edition about a controversial subject, he accepted to talk about his story and his feelings as a transgender.

“I like to play with clothes, I do it to express

myself and have fun” that’s what Abel answered when asking him about his style. For him, people have to be really careful when they talk about gender: it is really important to not

“I like to play”

confuse gender identity (the one you feel) and gender expression (how others perceive it) “I would define myself as transgender in the broadest sense, (…) I’m sure I’m not a cisgender man” he says.
