DOCUMENTARY: Reference Material [Libby Quote]
"It's basically as if trans people don't exist within the concept of sex, nor LGBT people at all. The only couples that we talk about are cis straight ones. Sitting there as kid who's questioning and being shown "this is what's normal" is crushing because it feels like there's no space for you in the world. It's also really unhelpful for cis straight kids too because they have no exposure to LGBT people so they never see anything beyond this idea of normal either. I asked one of my teachers why there's never any LGBT content and I was told that was "inappropriate". Basically the education board seems to have forgotten that we exist"
