  6. Any #book suggestions for someone wanting to be a better #trans #ally? Asking for a cis friend who wants to understand why I find some days/topics so hard after a conversation that began "JKR hasn't *actually* said anything ..." (stand down, I have since educated them!)

    I suppose like a gender introduction book?

    The things I've read are a bit heavy, e.g. #whippingGirl and Kate Bornstein's gender workbook (though I recall that being quite good).

  11. This has been driving me up a wall lately

  12. we are viewed as enabling our own sexual objectification (by virtue of the fact that we physically transition from male to female) in much the same way that a woman who wears a low-cut dress is presumed to facilitate her own objectification.

    Il faut vraiment que je relise Whipping Girl (et les autres bouquins de Serano que j'ai jamais lu) parce que ça me remet aussi mes propres cogitations en tête, notamment que cette dynamique n'est pas seulement restreinte à l'objectification sexuelle, mais à peu près à tout ce qu'on subit en tant que femmes trans.

    L'idée étant que les femmes cis n'ont pas choisi d'être des femmes et donc l'oppression qu'elles subissent est naturellement injuste alors que nous sommes perçues comme ayant choisi de faire tout notre possible pour appartenir à une classe dominée donc c'est un peu comme si on méritait tout ça. On l'a bien cherché. Où, comme certain⋅es d'entre vous le disent si bien aux femmes trans en début de transition dès lors qu'elles osent se plaindre du sexisme : « Bienvenue chez les femmes »

  15. About That #OutofContext #Quote(s) from #WhippingGirl That #AntiTrans #Activists Relentlessly Share.

    There are few things more #cowardly than #quoting someone out of context. It implies that you took the time to pore over that person’s #work and, rather than seriously engage with their #ideas, you chose to #smear them instead.

  17. last week there was a lot of "young men" & "crisis of masculinity" Discourse™, so since I'm gradually uploading some of my old slam poems to YouTube, I figured I'd release "Barrette Manifesto", which later became a chapter of my first book #WhippingGirl... youtu.be/auEs_fVvmoU
