Trans Love Is Love: On Relationships with Transgender People

Featuring TMS' own Teresa Jusino!

Recommended Videos

Laverne Cox once famously said, “Loving trans people is a revolutionary act.” The couples in this video understand what that means incredibly well. Each of these couples talks about how important their partner is to them. They open up about the things they’ve learned, and how much they’ve grown and changed over the course of their relationships.

One of the ideals, one of the core principles of any relationship, is to love someone for who they really are. Right now, we live in a world where trans people are (often violently) made to feel like something they aren’t. So to love a trans person, to love them for living their truth, for being who they arethat is important. It’s revolutionary, it’s strong… it’s everything to us.
