About

Hello, and welcome to CatholicTrans.

This blog began as a personal initiative to reconcile the faith of my upbringing with my transgender identity. However, over time it has grown organically into a resource for others as well as myself. Given the flood of misinformation out there,  CatholicTrans is an attempt to create a space on the web for real, non-fear-driven information about transgender issues in light of being Christian and Catholic.

This blog is an intersectional project: a very specific engagement of trans identities and experiences from a distinctly Catholic perspective. Such being the case, please note it does not necessarily represent the views of either myself (I am no longer Catholic) or the transgender movement as a whole. And while this blog represents a sliver in time of my own beliefs, I am still firmly convinced that the only way for the Catholic theological tradition to be both logically consistent and truly compassionate is to wholeheartedly accept its trans* children.
