Daine Grey finally found love, acceptance and support at the Queer Resource Center nestled within the City College of San Francisco.
As a 22-year-old gay trans man, it made sense why he was drawn to a warm, affirmative place — a place where it was okay to be gay, terrific to be trans and where love is love is love is love. He had only come out as trans the past fall, knowing it might tip some of his family and friends over into hatred and disgust as, you know, it’s one thing to be gay … but trans??
And he was right: His family disowned him. But he found and cultivated his chosen family at the Queer Resource Center, where he was loved and accepted unconditionally.
