A community of parents and friends skeptical of the transgender child/teen trend. Skip to primary content. Abandoning the Ship of Woman: Guest post. August 14, 2015. On my Tumblr blog recently, I put out a call for stories from women. An absurdity, an invention of post-modernist Gender and Queer Studies academics (who, sadly, replaced the in-touch-with-reality Women’s Studies professors who raised the consciousness of and liberated so many women in the mid-20th century). Women who once rejected themselve...

Fire in my belly. A radical feminist blog. AN OPEN LETTER TO DENISE BROGAN-KATOR. July 17, 2013. Middot; by FireInMyBelly. Middot; in Feminism. Middot; 4 Comments. This is my response to a letter written to Catharine MacKinnon. For clarity, I have copied Denise Brogan-Kator’s letter below (in italics. And my response to each point follows. For ‘communities of transgender people’ please read ‘communities of male-born individuals’. Please stop right there. Your ‘personal conclusions and thoughts’ are n...

I look like a salad, but I identify as a meatloaf. Why am i here? July 8, 2011. July 19, 2011. I started lifting weights the week my my ex-partner had sex-reassignment surgery. We were in Trinidad — a red, cachexic desert town of blue-collar families, pre-operative transsexuals, and feral cats — and I already knew things were going to end badly. Usually, I hung out at the hospital or the bed n’ breakfast. But there was also this. I don’t have to try to make a metaphor out of this. Things — lift, pu...

I look like a salad, but I identify as a meatloaf. Why am i here? If it fits on a T-shirt, you need to think more: On fundamentalism. June 14, 2015. June 14, 2015. If you were immersed in Evangelical culture during the 90s, like I was, you’ll recognize that as the text of a popular T-shirt. Even back then, I resented the sentiment, which gave me a mental image of a Bible Heisman – someone gripping a King James translation in one hand whilst stiffly holding up the other and leaning away. Sex work is work.

I look like a salad, but I identify as a meatloaf. Why am i here? 8220;Transparent”: Spitting on Michfest’s grave. December 20, 2015. Jill Soloway’s “Transparent” is a truly great TV show, primarily because its characters, the Pfeffermans, are unlikeable – selfish, lying, navel-gazing cheaters – yet totally engaging in a way I haven’t seen since “Six Feet Under.”. Plus, “Transparent” portrays older female sexuality in laser-sharp focus. Not gonna lie, I didn’t enjoy. MAN ON THE LAND! 8221; (with a volume...

I look like a salad, but I identify as a meatloaf. Why am i here? June 28, 2015. June 29, 2015. Because I lived in South Carolina for years, right-wing arguments for flying the Confederate flag are as familiar to me as right-wing arguments against marriage equality. They’re similarly disingenuous:. 8220;Heritage, not hate! 8221;/”I love homosexuals; I just don’t agree with their lifestyle.”. 8220;The flag has always flown in front of the State House!
