'i am no man' Charlotte Eowyn!Feb 25

It is 222 A.D. You are the transgender Empress Elagabalus, "call me not a man for I am a woman". Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1776. You are "Public Universal Friend", a transmasculine nonbinary Quaker. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1906. You are Karl M. Baer, a trans man undergoing sex reassignment. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1930. You are Lili Elbe. Transitioning is new and experimental. (to be fair you did get a uterus transplant.)

It is 1966. You are in Compton's Cafeteria with a bunch of other trans people when the owners call the cops to throw you all out. You riot. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 1969. You are Marsha "pay it no mind" Johnson. You are in a mob-run gay bar when the cops attack. You throw a brick. There is a bit of a scuffle. Transitioning is new and experimental.

It is 2026. You are a transgender adult or child listening to the NYT and British Guardian claim this is the first generation anyone has tried transitioning in. Transitioning is new and experimental.

@CharlotteEowyn

When did Wendy Carlos (inventer of the Moog synthesizer and who experimented with computers playing music) transition publicly? I believe it was the 70s.

Also, a Bond girl was trans and Playboy, in the 70s, featured a pictorial by a trans woman.

One more thing: because the Stonewall was run by the mob, the cops used the RICO act as justification for the raid. I

@CosmickTrigger @CharlotteEowyn Caroline Cossey played an extra in "For Your Eyes Only", calling her a Bond Girl is a lot of a stretch

@ratsnakegames

My mistake.

@CosmickTrigger No worries, you're not the first person to refer to her as a Bond Girl and it kinda always annoys me (partially because it gives the Bond producers way more credit for being ahead of their time than they actually deserve)

@ratsnakegames I'm right about Wendy Carlos fitting into OPs timeline tho, and the Playboy pictorial very openly let the reader know she was a trans woman.

Whatever his faults, Hugh Hefner was solidly leftwing on social issues.
