Various Writings

The pieces I've written range from the professional to the personal, with varying degrees of overlap. The more professional pieces I've written are intended to provide food for thought, and to spark debate. If anything I've said sounds as if I believe it to be set in stone, please let me know and I'll re-examine the piece. As far as I'm concerned, nothing about gender theory is set in stone. The more personal pieces are written from the perspective of my own transition process, and are based in my direct experience. Please don't generalize anything I've written about my own process, as if anything I've gone through applies to all trans people. I believe it's important for trans people to share their stories with others, both to lessen the isolation trans people often feel and to provide inspiration to those who are finding their life path difficult to sustain. But I don't believe there is a "one size fits all" type of transition process. It plays out very differently for all of us.
