Discomfort with my body as a trans man kept me out of the pool for years. Now, finally, I can jump back in.
I was the kid “adult swim” was invented for . By five, I was a capable little swimmer, and once I had my coveted passport to freedom—the green wristband awarded upon passing the deep end test—I refused to exit the pool, no matter how much I was coaxed or threatened, until exactly 10 minutes before the hour.
When the time came, I shucked my T-shirt and jumped into the pool at the Denver Sheraton, cannonball style, the way I had as a child, surrounded by other people in such a variety of swimming costumes and bodily topography under them, so many tattoos and piercings, so much hair and lack of it; frolicking like a pod of dolphins with other queer and trans and nonbinary and genderqueer people also feeling free for a rare moment to swim without judgment.
