I saw Green Day the other night, and Against Me! was the opening band. I had heard of them, but had never listened to them. Honestly, the only thing I knew about them was that their lead singer is transgender. Needless to say, I fell in love with them at the show. This song hit me the hardest. Laura Jane Grace's descriptions of how it feels to be a transgendered woman in this society are disturbingly beautiful. These lyrics punched me in the face and touched me on a deep level. She's such a fucking inspiration.
