non-marginalized people will never understand the drama of trying to decide if you& #39;re enough of your own identity to be portraying that identity accurately
(brought to you by me, a melungeon writing a book about a melungeon girl, worried that because i grew up in a city and don& #39;t live in the south anymore i& #39;ve lost "melungeon rights")
(also me, a trans person writing a book with a trans protagonist, debating if i am trans enough)
