Trans Contestant competes for Miss California


Trans contestant Kylan Wenzel will be competing in Miss California USA beauty pageant this weekend.

Kylan has a shot to win Miss Cali-Cal!

This is what she said in her interview in Frontiers magazine:
“You have to put it out to the universe—what you want to do—and you have to follow up on it,” Wenzel continued. “So, let’s say for transgender individuals, even if you haven’t had your sex change and you’re not sure, you have to act like you are Miss Universe or you are the woman you see yourself being. And you do that in everyday life. So I just worked really hard. I saved for surgery. I started getting procedures early like laser hair removal—things like that. It really is about believing in yourself. But you also need people to believe in you, because you can’t really get that far, sometimes, when you don’t have that kind of support.”
Good luck, Kylan
