g3 Magazine, a free magazine for gay/bi women mentioned the whole S'onewall/Bindel thing in their December 2008 edition. (Ed's letter on page 5 and Bindel's piece on page 98) Bindel's piece is the usual stuff, but I thought I'd correct some of the editors misconceptions and wrote them a quick letter...

I'm planning on putting together a "Debunking Cis" resource, similar to much of the excellent stuff at The Unapologetic Mexican and also drawing on the ever informative Questioning Transphobia. You know, the kind of thing where someone posts something dumb and everyone gets to reply with "Ah, that's a number thirty seven!" If anyone has any suggestions for inclusion, please do let me know... |

Pre-post edit. As I was writing this, I learned that Duanna Johnson,
an American trans woman who was filmed being beaten, mocked and
medically neglected by the Memphis police, an action which eventually
got her assailants fired, has been gunned down by
three mysterious assailants in the streets of Memphis. This is why
doing what we were doing on Thursday is so important. We need
mainstream organisations like Stonewall to stop seeing the needs of
trans people as unimportant, because this attitude is getting people
beaten and killed.
Yesterday saw a discussion panel on trans feminism as part of the
first London TransGender Film Festival. Zoe, myself
and Sylvia went along to take part and hear what
was to be said, and perhaps do a bit of networking. The audience was a
good mix of trans and queer people, as well as those from various
feminist organisations.
