Notes
Name tags help me navigate social spaces by reducing my chance of being misgendered. It helps me to be called by my chosen name in situations where I have to provide my old legal name.
It's always a joy to find old name tags in my bag on hard days & be affirmed to find my name & pronouns be reflected to me =)
