Izzy Heltai Included In FAI's "Folk Pride: 6 Folk Songs About Queerness" Round Up

 

“His song “To Talk About Yourself” dives into his identity as a trans man. He beautifully writes about “the battle scars on your chest,” a well-crafted metaphor describing the battle of being transgender. But this lyric goes beyond physical scars and implies long lasting marks and the fight towards being seen as valid. Izzy has a new single coming out next month, “Met on the Internet,” which addresses these issues. He says, as a cis/straight passing man, “We have the capacity to act just as badly, or even worse, than cisgender men because society tells us we will never be man enough. This makes us feel even more pressured to inhabit (often toxic) ideals of masculinity.”
