Being a musician, I really identified with Laura’s story as we shared many similarities and I really identified with it. She also transitioned just a little bit ahead of me and it helped me a great deal when I watched the series. I have since been a big fan of hers. I admire how she is able to make being transgender so punk rock and she is true to who she is without caring about what people think.
Laura and her band Against Me! are currently in the studio working on their next album. If you are into punk rock, check out Transgender Dysphoria Blues. You won’t be disappointed. Their live album, 23 Live Sex Acts also rocks. They are both available through Amazon.com
