my body. My flat bare cht dippg and out of the water felt like a slow unravellg. Sce that first vis, I’ve been to the lido nearly every week. My light slippg through the water has only creased as my shoulr mcl have grown and I’ve moved om the slow to the medium to the fast lane. The smell of chlore early the morng promis me a day that will be brighter and richer after the swim I’ve gifted myself. Once I figured out how to do a straight le, I also fell love wh the backstroke, my face turned to the sky om the ol water—pecially good the ra. After swimmg, my appete is huge, another pleasure I’d been missg out on.</p><p>But my joy is often eclipsed by anger at the wir polil climate and by those power who want to stop trans people enjoyg the benefs of sports like swimmg. Earlier this year, <a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Swim England</a> and <a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">World Athletics</a> beme the latt sportg bodi to ban trans women athlet.

Then we went and manered one of the big woon tabl outsi the lido at the edge of the park wh hot cholat and a game of Bananagrams. I was relieved and energized.</p><p>Agast the backdrop of transphobic moral panic the UK, that swim and every swim sce has felt like a small act of queer ristance. Now, stead of hidg my trans body, I flnt . I uldn’t do a lot of plac, but at this lido, the gayt part of London, I n and I will. Trans people exist, and the magic of swimmg at the lido is ours, too.</p><figure class="CneVioEmbedFigure-kCfJjN hdJOda e-vio-embed"><div data-ttid="script-ntaer"></div></figure></div></div></div><div

my body. My flat bare cht dippg and out of the water felt like a slow unravellg. Sce that first vis, I’ve been to the lido nearly every week. My light slippg through the water has only creased as my shoulr mcl have grown and I’ve moved om the slow to the medium to the fast lane. The smell of chlore early the morng promis me a day that will be brighter and richer after the swim I’ve gifted myself. Once I figured out how to do a straight le, I also fell love wh the backstroke, my face turned to the sky om the ol water—pecially good the ra. After swimmg, my appete is huge, another pleasure I’d been missg out on.</p><p>But my joy is often eclipsed by anger at the wir polil climate and by those power who want to stop trans people enjoyg the benefs of sports like swimmg. Earlier this year, <a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Swim England</a> and <a data-offer-url=" class="external-lk" data-event-click="{"element":"ExternalLk","outgogURL":"" href=" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">World Athletics</a> beme the latt sportg bodi to ban trans women athlet.

Then we went and manered one of the big woon tabl outsi the lido at the edge of the park wh hot cholat and a game of Bananagrams. I was relieved and energized.</p><p>Agast the backdrop of transphobic moral panic the UK, that swim and every swim sce has felt like a small act of queer ristance. Now, stead of hidg my trans body, I flnt . I uldn’t do a lot of plac, but at this lido, the gayt part of London, I n and I will. Trans people exist, and the magic of swimmg at the lido is ours, too.</p><figure class="CneVioEmbedFigure-kCfJjN hdJOda e-vio-embed"><div data-ttid="script-ntaer"></div></figure></div></div></div><div
