Quotes by Z.R. Ellor (?)

“Queer identities aren't binary states. There's no such thing as 'imposter queers' because there's no one right way to be queer.”
― Z.R. Ellor, May the Best Man Win

“Asking for love as a trans person, with the blunt hammer weight that word carries, feels like walking on fragile, cracking ice. Asking for love as the angry mess I am feels like inviting dark water to swallow me whole. Of course I didn’t want to test his love for me. I knew it would have a breaking point. I just didn’t want to learn where that was.”
― Z.R. Ellor, May the Best Man Win

“She thinks I have no skin in this game anymore. But telling the world who I am doesn’t stop truckers from honking at me as I walk to the diner that afternoon. It doesn’t stop me from needing to duck into three mini-marts on my way home to find one that sells tampons. It’s changed the shape of the target on my back, but it’s also made that target bigger.”
― Z.R. Ellor, May the Best Man Win
