”When are you going to start dressing like a man?"
"The others, the queers who have sex in public toilets, who don't "come out" as happily gay, the sex workers, the lesbians who are too vocal about a taste for dildos or S/M, the boys who flaunt it as pansies or as leathermen, the androgynes, the trannies or transgendered whose gender deviance makes them unassimilable to the menu of sexual orientations, the clones in the so-called ghetto, the fist-fuckers and popper snorters, the ones who actually like pornography - all these flaming creatures are told in earnestness that betrays no glimmer of its own grotesque comedy, that their great moment of liberation and acceptance will come later when we "no longer see our lives in terms of struggle", when we get to be "more than sexuality"- when, say, gay marraige is given the force of law. Free at last!"
-M. Warner, The Trouble With Normal.
..
I expected to feel discomfort or pain...
bearable at best.
When you pushed it in,
deeper
then deeper still,
I felt pressure
and dread
and shame
and fear
and hate
and warmth
and safety
and desire
and joy
and love
and your heart.
Beating inside me.
And I knew I was alive.
-John P. Egan
Who I'd like to meet: other gender outlaws, trannies, wrestlers, leatherfolk, art geeks and theorist junkies
