What has not yet been on "Medusa"
On Saturday, an interview with Anastasia from St. Petersburg, which has passed the procedure for correcting its biological sex, will be released on Medusa. When she was officially recognized as a woman and Anastasia received a passport for the female name, it turned out that now she could not work as a printer - because this profession in Russia is prohibited for women. For readers of the "Evening Medusa" we publish an excerpt from an interview in advance.
Of the hundred people of the team, only two supported me: the man with whom we worked together, and a woman from quality control. She is ten years older, it was difficult for her to fit all this in her head, but she was initially good. There were those who supported me in words. And then the day passed - and they again turned to me as a man. We never talked with one colleague, and after the information letter she wrote to me on the social network. But I have the feeling that this is dictated to a greater extent curiosity.
This is not the specifics of my company, but the specifics of society. Most of the population knows nothing about people like me. For them, this is something dark, unknown and dangerous. Few people have their own opinion, which the state or media cannot affect. I almost do not read the printing press: it leads to sad thoughts. The state does not want people to develop. It’s easier. This is partly why I wanted to give an interview. So that others can get some of their own opinion to begin with, maybe this will change something.
