FROM THE EARLIEST DAYS

Avery: With all of this stuff, even from the earliest days I was also fighting the gender dysphoria stuff. I didn’t know what it was called there was no name for it, I just knew I did not feel like a guy. It was like I had to split myself into two people. And I would get all kinds of lectures from my parents, particularly my mom when she would discover, at that time, girl’s clothes in my room somehow. I mean, I would get just a horrendous Biblical lecture, because we were Southern Baptist, and God only made two kinds of people, male and female- and it was male or female, not male and female, that’s what the Bible says - and God don't screw up. If you have a problem with that, suck it up. You need to get your faith stronger. So that's the earliest message I got.
