Summary
This case has been with me since I saw the 1999 file ‘Boys Don’t Cry’. I was obsessed with learning about Brandon’s story and finally decided to tell it to you. We don’t often hear about Brandon anymore when we talk about Transgender rights and prejudices. His story is important. His story deserves to be told. Note: Although assigned Female at birth, Brandon identified as male and that is how he will be referred to throughout this episode. If you or someone you know needs an advocate for transgender issues, please contact the Trans Lifeline at 877-565-8860 or www.translifeline.org/

| 0:25.0 | Hey everyone, Laney here. So as I grew up from my maternity leave, |
| 0:29.0 | I mentioned that I wanted to release some episodes from The Vault, if you will, |
| 0:34.0 | that are no longer available on the regular feed unless you go and scroll through the entire website. |
| 0:39.0 | This episode I'm particularly proud of. |
| 0:42.0 | I wanted to give it a shot on the feed again because I feel like it's a subject |
| 0:46.0 | that I'm really passionate about. |
| 0:49.0 | And at the time, terminologies and everything like that was still being developed and reviewed |
| 0:55.0 | and now we're a little bit more educated, I would say. |

| 1:15.0 | because it is a subject that's really important to me. |
| 1:18.0 | It's something that is stuck with me for a really long time. |
| 1:22.0 | And I just think that it deserves another lesson. |
| 1:26.0 | So thank you for being patient with me, for being gracious with me. |
