Housing Concerns
I decided to go with living at FCV since I can't drive and would have access to the bus network. I learned something, though, that makes me feel nervous to live there. I requested gender-inclusive housing, but FCV said that it's very limited and that I could be housed with any gender. This wouldn't bother me as much if I wouldn't be sharing a room with someone else. It makes me feel unsafe knowing that I could be housed with anyone, regardless of the roommate's housing preferences. Could you imagine arriving and having the fact that your roommate is transgender revealed as a surprise? That is the situation I'm in, and I fear it could turn in to something very dangerous for me if they're not accepting of the transgender community. I don't want to move to Florida just to have to immediately move back because my roommate can't handle my gender identity. I would rather just stay where I am now. What can I do to make sure this isn't going to be a housing disaster?
