Hi everyone, I come from Lebanon MENA region and my name is Ray.
Lebanon is ana amazing country as you may have heard or known, despite the ongoing conflicts all the time on our borders, we still love it, we still want to live here. On top of that comes my identity as transgender man, living in Lebanon makes it feels like hell, with all the stigma, the discrimination, the struggles, and the personal spaces and lifestyle.
I still remember all the times where I had to hide myself, true real self when it comes to identity and feelings, not only from inside but also on the outside as gender expressions, everyday is a new day that calls me to wear the binder, and believe me it is hell, back pain, difficulty in breathing, sweating body especially in the summer, can you imagine wearing layers to hide the “chest”???
That’s my daily morning painful routine, that I’m working so hard to get it “off of my chest”, moreover, I have another issue which is related to my genital parts down there where I have to remove it for medical purposes (Hysterectomy), that might cause cancer on a later stage (not very later, but still not yet).
SO, I’m reaching out with hope in my heart, asking for your kindness and support. I’m trying to raise funds for top surgery and a hysterectomy, so I can finally feel safe in my own body and take a real step toward peace and healing. important steps that will help me overcome dysphoria and finally feel at home in my body. This means a chance to live as myself, with comfort, peace, and a fresh beginning. Every donation big or small makes a big difference in my life and journey. Please help me take this step. Help me breathe, live freely, and be myself.
