Men I’ve dated:

• “It just has felt like teeth pulling to make this fun”
• “If I can tell you to do one thing, it’s to workout”

My therapist:

• “How are you feeling?”
• “Something about have I ever longed for x”
• “So you were kind of like [person]’s guide dog”

The public

• “Oh that’s amazing you can sign how did you learn?”
• “Do you know braille too?”
