Trans Day of Visibility (am I trans enough?‪)‬ Tilly's Trans Tuesdays

    • Personal Journals

Visibility is a double-edged sword. We need to be out to be seen and respected, but doing so puts a target on our back to the bigoted portions of the population. Further complicating things is not just the gatekeeping done by some gas station hot dogs within the trans community, but the gatekeeping that we do to ourselves. We're joined by Melissa Hearne to discuss how acknowledging the binaries helps us find the space between them, and how you get to be who you are, and nobody else gets to tell you who that is.

FURTHER READING
(topics discussed with essays available at TillysTransTuesdays.com)
Sexuality is not Gender, The Signs Were Always There (that we're trans), Body Hacking, Gender Dysphoria

Special thanks to Daisy and Jane for the use of "Sorry Not Sorry" as our show's theme music.
