I came over here after seeing Sage's case mentioned in Dylan's thread. I don't know if it's the same case someone was talking about but I'm really interested in this case now.
One of the articles linked in this thread says Sage was a trans woman, can anyone confirm if that's Sage's gender identity? If this is correct info please use the right pronouns - "her" and not "him". I want to make sure I don't misgender Sage too so if anyone can shed some light on her gender that would be great. In quotes Sage's family uses male pronouns so I don't know if Sage preferred them or if it was just the family getting used to it still.
Here are some articles I have found, apologies if they are repeats:

I don't know where to begin quoting because both articles are worth a read.
I also found this blog which has a few posts about Sage and links to other articles:

By the way, if you have a tumblr go to the Sage Smith tag and reblog one of the posts with her info. I don't use tumblr anymore but I'm seriously considering going back to do it in hopes that my followers will spread the word.
If you don't have a tumblr, your younger relatives probably have them so ask them to do it.
