Everything You Thought You Knew About 'The Matrix' is Wrong

It’s good to be back!! This week Betsy and Bobby slap together a little conversation about the 1999 classic sci-fi film “The Matrix” …..and then we spend an hour talking about the sorry state of affairs in which we all find ourselves. It was fun to get back on the mic and we will do our best moving forward but in the meantime try not to let Betsy’s nihilism get you down.

She Thinks My Gender's Sexy

I think (I think) we’ve gotten through the Trans 101 stuff with this episode. This week Betsy and Bobby go over a non-comprehensive list of gender identities and sexualities, but also have a bit of a spat about attraction and disclosure. Don’t worry, we still love each other and you very much. And of course it wouldn’t be us if we didn’t go on an extended esoteric riff and talk trash on some horrible people.

Bobby Takes the COGIATI!!

The COmbined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory (COGIATI) is a 65-question test developed in the late ‘90s that was intended to assess whether the taker is a transfeminine person (spoiler: it doesn’t). There are plenty of issues with the test but we thought it would be fun to have Betsy give Bobby the test and it definitely was. Cons of this episode: -It will take up most of your afternoon -Betsy only rants about one (1) terrible person Pros of this episode: -It’s a lot of fun (47:00-57:00 we really lose it) -Betsy and Bobby do some bonding so you learn a little more about us! If you want to take the test yourself, you can go here: https://www.transsexual.org/cogiati_english.html Find the show on Twitter @ciseducationpod, on Facebook @CiseducationPod and now on Reddit @Ciseducationpodcast.

I Need a (Trans) Doctor

This week Betsy and Bobby go over the most obsessed over and inappropriately asked about topic in the world of Transdom - healthcare. There are number of actually serious issues touched on but this episode is heavy on the juice that cis people seem to want so much: hormones and surgeries (we gotta get through this Trans 101 stuff first, I’m sorry). Big thank you to Betsy’s friend Kit for help with this episode Find the show on Twitter @ciseducationpod, on Facebook @CiseducationPod and now on Reddit @Ciseducationpodcast.

Ciseducation Defined

Betsy and Bobby go over what they want this show to be and how it came about. Then they take time to define a few basic terms at the center of any conversation about trans people. Also, Betsy has her first rant of the pod at 44:21!! Terms we discussed: -AMAB/AFAB: Assigned male at birth/assigned female at birth. Assigned genders based on a person's anatomy at birth. -Trans: Latin prefix meaning "on the other side of". If your gender identity does not align with the one assigned at birth, you are transgender -Cis: Latin prefix meaning "on the same side of". If your gender identity does align with the one assigned at birth, you are cisgender -Transmasc/Transfem: Short for transmasculine and transfeminine; useful shorthand for trans people and their identities -Nonbinary: Often shortened to NB or "enby". Umbrella term for people who's gender expression and identity fall outside of the traditional male/female binary. -TERF: Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist. These people are not feminists, they're just transphobic bigots. Don't listen to them. Laugh at them and tell them to take several seats. Special thank you to everyone who helped and supported us getting here, we couldn't have done it without you!! Please spread the word, subscribe, rate and review - and give us your feedback!!
