Portrait/Logo

We are a friendly queer couple in our twenties. One of us is a cisgender woman named Tashia and the other is a trans* guy named Riley. We blog about life, love, and whatever we find that could be useful or interesting to human rights activists of all kinds.

We specifically created this safe space for folks in need of guidance/advice regarding:

★ relationships/dating
★ coming out
★ dealing w/dysphoria
★ transitioning
★ safe sex/sex education
★ and much more

We especially hope to provide help to those who identify as trans* and/or queer or questioning.
