August and Xanthia are among the few other couples I know who see a relationship weathered a gender transition. The love between them is beautiful as are their souls.
He says, "I feel a unique sense of joy as I fully embrace my transgender experience. My relationships with others and myself are deeper and feel more real. I rake pride in knowing that beaue I walk in my truth, someone else like me might see themselves with love."
