Jazz always knew she was a girl trapped in a boys body at the age of 14 year olds. When she was 2 years old she started questioning her identity, her pediatrician told her parents she likely had a transgender identity disorder and was sent to a therapist. Out in the world she lived as a boy she wore boy clothes to appear gender neutral. But in her home she would embrace herself as a girl. Jazz at the age of 4 didnt like having to hide who she was so for her 5 year old birthday party she put on a one-piece swimsuit and told her friends she was a girl. But they had referred to her as a girl. Since then Jazz has embraced who she was growing up she grew out her hair, pierced her ears, painted her nails, wore dresses, high heels, and makeup. When she turned 11 she went on testosterone and then started taking estrogen and went trough puberty. Jazz began speaking out about her identity and started gaining some supporters. Her parents and siblings where always afraid for Jazz they were always scared that they would get a phone call about something happening to her. ]]> 2022-03-28 17:26:12 UTC https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2117668724 23jejac01 https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2120056836 I selected Jazz Jennings because she is just so powerful for everything shes done. She has inspired so many people to help them in there transgender journey. I love how she just specifies in this absolutely beautiful and i know for a fact very difficult journey for people. What made her the most unique is that she knew at the age of 2 years old that she wasnt a male. I know it can be difficult because not many people are understanding of transgenders. But Jazz tries to help she also has a youtube channel where she tries to help parents in the process of there kids becoming transgender. ]]> 2022-03-29 19:17:40 UTC https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2120056836 23jejac01 https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2120283644 Jazz Jennings was honored by GLAAD Media Awards on Saturday April 2, 2016.

When her mom found out she was pregnant she knew it was going to be a girl. As she began growing up her family thought her obsessive interest in girly things was just a nothing to important development phase. Jazz specifically remembers being a child and taking baths with her brothers and sister and would compare her genitals to theres and her penis felt so wrong. Shed wish she could just wipe it off and shed have a Gagina. Jennings specifically just feels feeling off in her body, this isnt who she was. Jazz would put on dressed and heels while being inside but when it came to going out her parents didnt allow her too. When she would go out her mom dressed her up in boy shorts and Jazz would cry, it made her feel ashamed and humiliated. Jazz remembers sleeping ans having a dream about a fairy using her wand to turn her penis into a vagina. ]]> 2022-03-29 23:00:09 UTC https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2120300515 23jejac01 https://padlet.com/23jejac01/agvx897nedi8mji3/wish/2120326598 Jazz Jennings story is very simple she was born a male and at the age of 2 she knew she wasn't a boy she was a girl.
