Clara Reinisch is one of the two transgender women I interviewed during Pride Month. She is a talented classical pianist from Germany currently studying in Vienna whose eyes remind me of Anne Hathaway.
I sat down with her for a conversation that traces a deeply personal and politically charged journey of becoming. We talked about the full arc of a transgender life—the experience of being born, growing up, and transforming in a world that questions your right to exist at every turn.
This interview dives into:
The early awareness of identity and the emotional weight of that realization
What “transition” means in the trans community, psychologically, physically and socially
The evolving meaning of femininity and the weight it carries
True allyship beyond rainbow logos and performative support
This is not just a story of transition.
It’s a story of resistance and tenderness.
Of navigating a world where survival itself becomes a daily act of courage.
This conversation is part of Fem Renaissance’s ongoing series amplifying voices living at the edge of culture—and pushing the world forward from there.
