Germaine Geer F to M perspective and more
The Guardian seems to be running hot on serious transgender articles. Another one written by Jack More.
We’re all a bit non-binary inside. So why do we segregate by gender?

A couple of quotes:
“When the news was leaked earlier this year that Caitlyn Jenner would be sharing Glamour magazine’s “Women of the Year” cover with Reese Witherspoon, the chatterati erupted. Germaine Greer defined womanhood as having a “big hairy smelly vagina”. Ladies with sparse or no pubic hair, or lacking a degree of “smelly” – get to the back of the womanhood queue: according to the great feminist icon, your genitals betray your gender.”
and
“If this threatens you, go and have a long hard look at yourself and ask why my ovaries-and-testosterone combo makes you so uncomfortable, or why the contents of Caitlyn Jenner’s knickers is any of your goddamn business; and go check out Conchita Wurst’s fashion advert while you’re there. Gender constructs need to be deconstructed, for all of our sakes – that’s feminism, and I’m not waiting around for Germaine Greer to catch up with us all to do it.”
