All colors of the rainbow

I'm pretty much done with my paper on negotiations of identity and sexuality in trans folks and their partners, and I loved writing this paper. People can be ugly, but sometimes, they're not, and our capacity to reconcile concepts that society wants us to see as contradictory is an amazing thing.

Which is why I think I might need this t-shirt. (Check out the back - that's what makes it awesome.)

While I'm on the topic, two other links I have to share:

- murraynz shares his take on being gay and goes into heteronormativity and the ways in which we oppress ourselves. It's a great read.

- Labor of love, the story of a woman and her trans male partner and the baby they're having - a baby that the husband is carrying. It's beautifully told, and simply beautiful.


We're at our best when we embrace diversity.

Absolutely. I would love to hear people's opinion and feedback on it. :)
