I was on my walk from my newspaper box to my front door and scanning the headlines of The Columbian. Imagine my joy and delight as I see “Dressed in Confidence — 17-year-old discovers his inner queen amid Vancouver’s fledgling drag scene” (April 8).
I moved to Stevenson from a Seattle suburb a year and a half ago. It was super tough going from liberal Seattle to a staunchly “red” community. I am an ally of all things, including gay rights, so it has been an odd transition.
The Columbian will probably get bombarded with hate mail about this article, so I wanted to take the time to write about how much I enjoyed it. My husband and I love The Columbian and will continue to support unbiased journalism, even if we don’t agree 100 percent.
