Moira Airington and Nicole White are a married couple who both identify as trans women. They discuss their experience with family, education, and the working world, as well as the story of how they first met, dated, and eventually married. Moira shares her experiences with gender identity and presentation, and working as an EMT while dealing with unstable access to housing. Nicole elaborates on her experiences with coming out as trans to her conservative, Catholic family, and talks about moving around the United States (and Puerto Rico) as a young person and finding her identity in a changing environment.
