Advice for moving and getting started
Hi! I’m a 21 year old trans woman who is about to graduate college. I live in a very conservative white part of the south, and it’s been hard finding a community here. I’ve always dreamt of moving somewhere where I could make friends, and Minneapolis was my number 1 dream spot since freshman year. After my 22nd birthday, I’ll finally be able to break free from my Trump supporting parents, look for a chemistry-related job near Minneapolis, and move up there. But I still have worries.
I’m worried that I won’t find a community or make any friends or date anyone. I’m also worried that it’ll be different being an Arab trans woman moving there. A lot of POC trans women that I’ve talked have told me that “trans-friendly” cities treat trans people of color differently and that scares me.
Finally, I’d love some advice on moving there if anyone has the time.
