I like this! I think you could do a good bit of a paper in regards to this; it could incorporate the ideas of reclaiming language and border crossing within it. I vote on this project/thesis because it seems to me to have a tangible outcome. It brings your work directly into the hand of those who can benefit from it. Bravo.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Isani! I'm always really happy to find resource guides like this for LGBT people in the community, or especially for LGBT people who had never considered their ability for form a community which is definitely the first step in gaining equal rights.
ReplyDeleteI third this project.
ReplyDeletethanks guys, i appreciate your comments, but i'm strongly leaning towards project #1, because this project (glad y'all approve) will be somewhat my life's ongoing work as i move into medicine and set up networks for trans patient care and hopefully publish papers. i'm also considering doing a partial version of this (perhaps a thorough resource zine/booklet) sometime over the semester anyway for my LGBT studies course final project... but perhaps i can connect the two in a way that leans more towards medicine, and complement that with a resource zine that can act as my final project for my other class....
