        Jacob Tobia: Cis Men Should Embrace Their Attraction to Trans Folx
    
Jacob Anderson-Minshall
Mar 11, 2019

        Jacob Tobia's memoir, Sissy: A Coming of Gender Story, garnered the nonbinary trans actor, author, and activist a six-figure deal with Putnam Books.

        If there's one thing Costa Ricans value above all else, it's community. Pura vida is more than a friendly motto written on hats or T-shirts for tourists to buy at souvenir shops. Directly translated as "pure life," it is closer to American ideas of the "simple life." And in Costa Rica, the concept is part of their heritage and runs deep in the soil. The phrase is a reminder to not sweat the small stuff and instead focus on things that matter: friends, family, and most importantly, love. Keep Reading →
