Can't quote toot this amazing post thread by CJ, quoting Mira Bellwether, but we can at least create a link to it  

It's all about trauma, transitioning, and how love doesn't begin with loving yourself, but loving others

"I’m more interested in our actual sex lives than I am in how they’re depicted by the largely ignorant and fearful media. I wanted to speak to aspects of our sexuality that are almost never given any attention in media whatsoever: those of us who enjoy sex with other women, trans and otherwise, and some of the difficulties (as well as unique pleasures) of trans women having sex with cis women."—Mira Bellwether

I'm sad to hear that #MiraBellwether has died. I hope that her loved ones will find peace. I hope they know she touched many lives in a wonderful way.

I recently learned of the existence of the zine #FuckingTransWomen, read a little over half of it (I want to finish it sometime), and learned a lot. I was very grateful to have the privilege to read something so informative and so positive about #trans bodies. (1/2)
