In honor of Transgender Day of Visibility, being observed today, GLAAD has launched a new campaign, #ILoveBeinhTransbc, spotlighting the positive aspects of transgender people's experience.

The campaign includes a video with several well-known trans people explaining why they love being transgender and a custom website, ILoveBeingTransBC.com, where all trans readers can submit their own videos and photos explaining this. Submissions that are featured on the website will be automatically be entered for a chance to win a trip to march with GLAAD during New York Pride this June.

The video features Shea Diamond, D'Lo, Scott Turner Schofield, Sir Knight, Peche Di, Jazzmun Crayton, Alok, Devin Lowe, Gio Bravo, and Micah Prussack. "I love being trans because I'm not forced to be in a box where I don't belong," says singer-songwriter Diamond. Schofield, an actor and writer, says trans people have figured out who they are, something other people spend their lives on, and can be a source of information on this. "It is a privilege to be able to teach people just by existing," he says.
