For those raised in purity culture, messages about sex were rooted in fear, silence, and control. Virginity was prized above all else, sexual desire was condemned, and women, queer, and trans people were often left shrouded in shame.

In a crawlspace at the offices of Switchboard, a queer helpline in operation since 1974, lie dozens of log books kept by volunteers describing the phone calls they had taken: a teenager kicked out of home for dressing as the wrong gender; a lesbian terrified of having her baby taken away from her; a man arrested for chatting up another man; a young person wanting to know how to come out. These logs documented traces of tens of thousands of queer lives, captured by people who lent an ear to those in need.

Su «epistemología del punto de vista» sostiene que todo conocimiento está localizado y que no existe ciencia objetiva, ni siquiera en las disciplinas tradicionales.

You’ve Been Blocked: The Search for Gay Male Perfection is a provocative discussion exploring various ways gay men were restricted from their true selves. Many were fundamentally blocked after being raised to be straight boys, even though they are not. In childhood, gay men commonly learn to take care of and “accommodate others” by repressing their true selves; instead of healthy development and self-respect, they seek external approval from parents, teachers, and peers, for example, for being something they are not.

I Am Trantifa is a searing collection of poetry by Elizabeth Fern Rhosyn that bears witness to trauma, survival, and resilience, confronting sexual violence, transphobia, police brutality, mental illness, addiction, and recovery with raw honesty and unflinching courage.
