Last week, I got to connect with Jennifer Lahl, the brilliant filmmaker behind Detransition Diaries, Eggsploitation, #BigFertility, and more. We talk about gender, surrogacy, prostitution, and the whole global empire built on disembodiment.
Sorry for sitting the dark like a weirdo! I always sit by the window. It was a rainy day. Didn’t notice or think about how dark my image would appear :-/
Great discussion. I'm always glad for connections being made between different issues that affect women. Since one of the main projects of patriarchy is to disconnect women from ourselves and each other so we're more easily exploited, some of the most powerful things we can do are connect with each other, connect the dots, and connect to ourselves.
This was lovely. It should absolutely be ok that a certain way of being is objectively better than the other: transing is a negative outcome.
