I think enbies have it harder

In some ways, yeah.

Growing up in Texas in the 90's didn't provide a lot of role models for gender diversity. I didn't meet an openly trans person 'til college. >_<

Same experience here. I remember this guy sitting next to me once, he was wearing makeup and a dress. Looking back I presume they are enby.

It's such a powerful experience, right? You never forget it.

For sure. A friend of mine in college came out to me as transmasc and that was the last little push I needed to be more open about myself. 😄
