Richard: Hey guys! I'm so excited to be here with you all. My name is Richard, but I used to go by Riley before I started my transition. It's been a long journey, but I'm finally starting to feel like myself. You guys look amazing as well!
Friend 1: Thanks, Richard! We're glad to have you here with us. How long have you been on hormone replacement therapy?
Richard: About a year now. It's still a work in progress, but I feel like I'm finally seeing some real results.
Friend 2: That's great! We can definitely see the changes in your body. You look incredible.
Richard: Thanks, guys! I've been working hard to tone up and get rid of some of this excess fat. It's been a long road, but it's worth it in the end.
Friend 3: So, Richard, have you had any surgeries or procedures done?
Richard: No, not yet. I'm still waiting for my insurance to cover some of the more expensive procedures. But eventually, I plan on having top surgery and possibly bottom surgery as well.
Friend 4: That makes sense. It can be really tough to find good healthcare coverage when it comes to transgender care.
Richard: Absolutely. It's still a battle that we face every day. But hopefully, things will get better in the future.
Friend 5: Speaking of the future, what are your plans after college?
Richard: I actually just graduated last semester! Right now, I'm exploring my options and trying to figure out what I want to do with my life.
Friend 1: That's awesome, Richard! Congrats on graduating! Maybe we can help each other out in our job searches?
Richard: Thanks, guys! That would be great. I'm definitely interested in pursuing something related to LGBTQ+ advocacy or healthcare.
