"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

It just occurred to me that Mira Bellwether, the author of the amazing zine "Fucking Trans Women" (2010) was born in the same year as me, 1982, but died 2 years ago, in 2022.

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)
