Being a lesbian doesn't mean I'm not attracted to men, it just means all the men I'm attracted to remind me of women and I like that most about them.

I get the affirmation some dolls get from being like 'I was always a woman' but there's something so much more metal about being like, 'yeah I was a boy but I cut that shit out and got a sex change.'

Kissing to say 'hello' is romantic and kissing to say 'bye' is platonic. I leave the rather trivial proof of this maxim as an exercise for the reader--have fun 😘

New essay: "Atmospheres of Conversion" - We argue that trans films (The People's Joker & I Saw the TV Glow) frame anti-trans conversion as central to cis society and that creating trans art spaces is one way to fight back! Written with @echosequence.space Preprint here: philpapers.org/rec/MARAOC-16

Atmospheres of Conversion: Trans Cinema, Tactics, and t4t Sociality

Amy Marvin and Isobel Bess

Author preprint. Forthcoming in philoSOPHIA: A Journal of Transcontinental Feminism. Please cite the final published version when available.

Abstract: This essay draws from recent trans films to map a social atmosphere of anti-trans conversion beyond the discrete set of social, medical, and psychiatric practices normally discussed in this context. To explain this phenomenon, we introduce a permeating organizational maxim of cis society we refer to as the Silenic imperative: that it is best to not live as trans, and second best to cease living as trans as soon as possible. The People’s Joker and I Saw the TV Glow depict this permeating atmosphere of conversion within mass culture, constituted by and constitutive of spaces in which trans existence is systematically threatened and repressed. By staging atmospheres of conversion, both films likewise stage tactics of trans resistance that open new spaces for trans sociality. We consider how these films frame attempts to navigate and resist atmospheres of conversion, considering trans-for-trans (t4t) sociality as a site of both escape and failure. We conclude by considering trans cinema itself as a site of tactics against atmospheres of anti-trans conversion in our own world and as a source for life-sustaining sociality. This is especially important within the contemporary atmosphere of cis society and its attempts to suffuse and snuff out all trans life.

Keywords: Atmospheres; Conversion Therapy; Queer and Trans Film; Practice Theory; t4t

It warms my heart to see this zine being made. From what I've read I admire the vulnerability and hope in these testimonies that philosophy can become a better place for trans people.

“Philosophy will only be truly accessible when junior trans people are able to build careers free of harassment and discrimination, and when out trans academics stop being held to higher standards than their cis peers.” -- Ray Briggs #beingtransinphilosophy

A picture of black text set in typewriter font on white background:

I've seen multiple trans friends quit philosophy because they didn't feel valued or respected. I am doing okay professionally and personally, but that's not evidence that the discipline is generally habitable for trans people.

I have tenure and a great support network. I built a lot of resources before coming out, which probably helped. No one should have to wait until tenure to come out, and not everyone can.

Philosophy will only be truly accessible when junior trans people are able to build careers free of harassment and discrimination, and when out trans academics stop being held to higher standards than their cis peers.

The text continues:

Sometimes, it feels like my existence in the discipline is taken as evidence that all of the trans people complaining about and repelled by the discipline are wrong. I've had people approach me to say awful things about trans women in particular, based on the assumption that I am one of the nice, rational trans people, while this or that trans woman is hysterical and emotional.

I hate this. It feels like I am being offered an insultingly small bribe to sell out people I love.

Ray Briggs

I had days where I was spat at in the streets, then had to go to class and listen to discussions about whether or not trans people should be considered ...

The text continues:

... part of the gender they identify with. I developed a habit of arriving late so I could use the restroom while everyone else was already in class -- only to be scolded for being late. My body internalized the hatred and developed chronic bladder infections, which eventually made it impossible for me to work -- right after I had fought my way to a degree as the only openly trans person in philosophy in the city where I lived at the time.

I watched from the sidelines as things unfolded, only to see support grow for those targeting trans people. I've only recently reentered philosophy, but I now live with a constant fear: that if I say the wrong thing, I'll be pushed out of the network again and left with no real job prospects.

If you're a cis person who bought hogwarts legacy, you owe a trans person $70 immediately. Also you should probably wear a hat that says "dipshit" on it

I really dislike the "people pleasing" framing of self-abandonment because it makes it v easy to overcorrect into selfish behavior. It's good, actually, to be thoughtful and considerate of how your actions (even when appropriate and permissible) negatively affect other people.

It’s really comforting that as food skyrockets in price, your neighbors are disappeared by masked goons, and people die en masse of preventable illness, Republicans and Democrats can come together and say: fuck this one trans teenager in particular for trying to run track with her friends

Starting to read trans/rad/femme (by @taliabhatt.itch.io) with @illocutie.bsky.social. I'm quite sympathetic to the underlying goal, as is evident in my own work, but the preface of finding pre-transition comfort in radical feminism is deeply relatable.
