Felt good enough for a selfie today. Hope everyone can leave this work week behind them. I know I’m going to.

I was hoping I’d never have to write about this again, but someone who was abusive to both Rowan and myself (at different periods in time) has a vendetta against us and continues to slander the both of us.

If you’re hearing outlandish accusations about us, know that they are complete lies.

Last Thanksgiving I got a call from @mavenofmayhem.bsky.social
asking for help with something.

Now, a year later, I get to admire the beautiful sunrise he painted for me in the home we’ve built together.

Thank you for taking a chance on me Rowan. ❤️

We said goodbye to Xander yesterday after twenty years of being lucky enough to share this earth with him.

And every box that ever came through the front door.

Love you Xanman.

Had a great weekend away with the ‘cule to celebrate one of our birthday’s. So good, in fact, that I slept 12 hours last night. Apparently that’s just what this girl needed to start the week right.

To the people being shitty, I WAS THERE. I watched and supported him on this journey and saw how hard he tried to NOT be trans and NOT come out and NOT transition. You were not there and you don’t know. So shut up. Go reflect on your motives and be better.

If you knew how long I fought back my gender identity by saying "I'm just a more masculine woman" and then "I'm non-binary - that's it" and also "I'm genderfluid" and then "Okay, maybe I'm a guy but I don't need to transition" you wouldn't say that. I tried just about everything.

When I was little my mother forbade me from playing with my cousin’s Barbies. I had to make up stories with my GI Joe’s and Transformers instead.

Tonight I received my very first Barbie and I tear up every time I look at her. She’s mine. Actually mine.

Thank you Rowan. ❤️❤️❤️

I am so incredibly happy for and proud of this man. Coming out is never an easy road so I’m honoured to have been asked along on this journey. I can’t wait to see my partner flourish in his new skin. Love you always Rowan.

A very special and important update.

Hello, world. It's so nice to meet you.
Hi world, It is with joy, relief, and a fair amount of anxiety that I am re-introducing myself to you as Rowan Jetté Knox. I am a trans man, am medically transitioning, and will be exclusively using he/him pronouns going forward. I’ve known this is who I am for a long time now, but I had to work up the courage to say it out loud. It took months of introspection, therapy, long chats with loved ones, plenty of tears, and pushing through a lot of fear and denial to get here. But am I ever glad I’m here. I’ve been Rowan to my loved ones for a good while now. But publicly, I’ve been Amanda. This in-between space has been hard. It’s a big reason why I was struggling with depression earlier this year, and why my anxiety has been so high. Not living authentically is a heavy load to carry. Initially, I was going to wait until a few weeks after my next memoir came out – which was scheduled for release August 22nd. This made the most sense from a logistical standpoint; the book is already printed under my old name. Maybe, I thought, it should make its way into the world a little before I do. I believe it to be an important book about healing from childhood trauma, and I didn’t want anything to take away from that. But after talks with my agent and publisher, it became apparent to everyone that each day I had to live as Amanda was too painful, too heavy to carry for much longer. So, they did something wonderful: they centered my wellbeing before anything else and encouraged me to come out when I was ready. I chose August 1st. They then delayed release of ONE SUNNY AFTERNOON until September 12th to give me the time and space to breathe between coming out and touring a book about my trauma. This is allyship in action and something I will always be grateful for. So, here we are. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. I get to live as Rowan forever now. I don’t exactly know how that’s going to feel, but I can only imagine it will be a whole lot better than how I’ve been feeling up until now. I want to thank my children, partners, extended family, and friends for loving me through it all. I want to thank everyone at Penguin Random House Canada and the Transatlantic Agency for standing behind me as a trans person and not just as an author. Finally, gratitude to Elliot Page for leading by example. Seeing you do it helped me do it. Maybe one day I’ll be able to read your book (but not yet because it’ll probably make me cry too much.) With love and gratitude for new beginnings, Rowan

I went on a single date with the person being referred to in this thread 3 years ago. And they still continue to slander me to this day.

Today is the day I need to remind the internet that a highly toxic or abusive person who has finally been left by their victim will often be the first to publicly slander said victim - often accusing them of of being the abuser. The idea is to control the narrative.
