(For how i crafted these quotes, see What i changed in survey-takers' responses and What i didn't change.)
"I wish I had more connections with queer adults. I don't know many in my personal life, but I wish I did."
"i havent interacted with many queer adults in my life so far."
"I don't know many other trans people personally, and the ones I know I barely see at all."
"Ive never met a trans adult."
"It's very difficult to find adults like this to talk to."
"I do not have any LGBTQ adults in my life because many queer elders were taken through strategic police violence or the negligence in the HIV epidemic. I am also from a conservative town in which, even if there were queer adults in my life growing up, they were probably not out."
When I'm around LGBTQ adults, "I want so, so, so badly to be able to acknowledge that we're both queer and trans and just... not have to hide it."
