BIKES!
there's a transit strike in toronto and i'm not even bothered by it at all. on my paddy wagon i'm able to dive in and out of traffic and outpace cars on most streets. i'm also loving outracing anyone who tries to jump me at an intersection - see, my bike has a steep gear to start with so it looks like i'm slow but that's just for a few seconds till i get up to speed, then she's ridiculously fast! who knew i was so competititve! i also love observing how the boys at the bike shop get so dumb and flirty when a girl comes in with any knowledge about and interest in bikes.
jennlegs, i totally understand your secrets now!
SEX!
this summer is shaping up be one hott sexy parade of sex talk and sex fun.
i'm co-facilitating a fun workshop about sex and sexual health at with
sj936 at the
philly trans health conference. you can read the description of the workshop, and for the other awesome workshops
here.
i'm also gonna be blowing the minds of rural health nurses at the
guelph sexuality conference, doing a workshop on how to have trans-inclusive sexual health education.
i'm totally excited to be working with some amazing folks on
this really rad porn project. i'm so excited that trans women's bodies, perhaps the most sexually exploited sites in western culture, are being reclaimed in a hott and sexy film. i'm honoured to be a part of it (and wet just thinking about the final product).
and, following on my (very) mini-creative project last summer, putting together the radio show
(cis) girl meets (trans) girl: the politics of lovin' queer trans gals, i'm wanting to follow it up by making a 10-15 minute doc video with a similar theme capturing and articulating the *real* sexual lives of queer trans girls. it's really exciting, it would be my first video project, yes, but one needs to start somwhere, sometime!
on a related note, i'm totally stoked to get my hands on a new zine called (rio)t-grrrrl that
mindtheft put together, especially cause the first issue focuses on that occasionally tricky, but oh so hott, fuck-me please quandry of queer trans grrrl sex!
there's also some progress being made on putting together the accessible sex party here in toronto as well.
and of course the annual
pleasure palace: more tha just pussy (aka one hott mouthful - as i call it) in june before pride is happening as per usual.
in honour, i think going to get my clit pierced! she's just screaming for it.
p.s. - thanks to everyone who read my last post on biphesnol-a. the feedback was awesome and i'm looking into places to publish it once i clean it up somewhat.
