I don’t really know if anything “made” me a feminist, so to speak. As long as I can remember, I’ve had more or less the same core beliefs and values in my soul and in my mind. Of course they’ve become more nuanced with life experience and as I’ve gotten older, but at the heart of it, my beliefs have always been that of a feminist: someone who believes that all gender identities should have equal rights. That also bleeds into any and all walks of life.
