Because You’ve Become Stupid

So you believe Obama wants to redistribute your wealth because AM radio and FOX News told you so?* Here’s why your ‘news’ sources are making you stupid: They lie to you. Here’s the actual quote: “Chicago Housing Authority has not been a model of good policymaking. And neither necessarily have been the Chicago Public Schools. What […]

1974: TERFs and Trans Folk

The following article was published in 1974. Note the way the overall public holds anti-trans views in contempt. Note the dismissive way the author of this article reports on TERF bigotry. I think this article serves as an important cautionary tale. I can’t help but note that today, like in this 1974 article, most feminists and trans […]

From Swatch Watch: TIME TRANNY!

Did you know that Swatch Watch sold a timepiece known as, “TIME TRANNY“? Well, neither did I! Swatch has this to say: LaChapelle’s creation for Swatch features a picture of the extravagant model and transsexual icon, Amanda Lepore. Surrounded by the blue and gold nimbus of a King Tut-like headdress, her face radiates a red-lipsticked smile. […]

Nikki Araguz Trans Marriage Update!

Here’s the long-awaited Nikki Araguz case update! We last left off a year ago with my critique of the small-town Republican judge’s laughable judgement. What fallows is the brief that was submitted to the 13th District Court of appeals in Texas. As I bitched about in my critique, the ethically challenged legal team for the ex-wife […]

The American Psychiatric Association, RadFems and Fundies

Houston, we have a problem. Or, I should say that RadFems and Fundies have a problem on their hands. You might have missed it, but the American Psychiatric Association published their position on “transgender and gender variant” people this week… And their position is problematic to the beloved narrative and traditional goals favored by RadFems and Fundies: Long-standing medical and psychiatric […]

Unity, NOT Uniformity!

As you may know, most of the TS Separatist leaders have moved on with their lives and the ones who are left seem to be the Ashley Love/Just Jennifers of the world who regularly make absurd and demonstrably false claims.  I will continue to both confront and make evidence-based corrections when folks like Love attempt to pass off fiction as […]

Gender Orientation, Identity and Expression

I’ve seen so many arguments and misunderstandings pop up over the conflation of these THREE dimensions of what we collectively refer to as gender: Gender Orientation: One’s subjective experience of one’s own physical sex. Gender Identity: One’s culturally influenced identification of one’s sex within the context of a social grouping. Gender Expression: One’s situational expression of cultural ques which […]
