My daughter took t-shirts and sweatshirts that my partner of 35 years and I had collected in our travels. She took them to a friend of the family that created this amazing quilt. My partner passed away in 2022, never has a gift carried so much emotion. A Christmas gift that means the world to me.

screenshot from linked to essay that reads (in part): Most accounts of “transvestigation” that I’ve come across either portray the phenomenon as a “bizarre” conspiracy theory, or the inevitable byproduct of “transphobic brain rot” (i.e., individuals who’ve become so consumed with transphobia that they’ve lost their grip on reality), or some combination thereof. While all these things may certainly be true, this framing seems to imply that the rest of us see gender and trans people “normally” or “correctly.” And frankly, nothing could be further from the truth! In reality, as individuals, we often see and interpret gender in wildly different ways. I have written at great length about how we perceive sex and gender in my most recent book Sexed Up. And I explored the many obstacles these ways of seeing create for trans and other gender-nonconforming people in my first book Whipping Girl. In this essay, I will draw on some of those ideas to explain what “transvestigation” really is and...

just stumbled upon a GC/TERF writer who claimed that I viewed women like her as "witches" (a word I never use for anyone – she must have JKR on the brain). I don't think GC/TERFs are "witches", I just think they're wrong. here's why: juliaserano.medium.com/a-gender-cri...
