This ongoing body of work explores the power dynamics inherent in the questions asked of transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, gender-variant, and/or gender non-conforming people.

Many documentary photographic projects that deal with trans issues exploit the genders of their subjects, pointing to an “otherness” or inappropriately exoticizing their bodies.

Ngl, number two fucks me in the head constantly. Some days it’s so bad I don’t even want to get out of bed. :\

You know, I’ve had a fair amount of luck with finding people in the online trans community.  Trans people are more promising than cis people because they’re more likely to at least sympathise if not understand.  Plus, trans people are hot.  We really are.
