Patriotism, nationalism, and freedom

Keep driveway free.
Freedom for all driveways! (by christophheinrich)

To me, patriotism while being a transgender person is something like religion is for other LGBT people. Those aren't exactly the most compatible things. Obviously, I have a difficult time with it. If you would ask the people that know me to describe me, words like "patriotic" probably wouldn't make the list. "Good student", "talented", "smart", "friendly"... Heck, maybe even "fun"? But "patriotic"? No, not me... They'd probably say that I'm simply too queer forward-thinking to be into such "conservative and traditionalist" things like patriotism. Well, it's just who I am!
