Sitting in an all-star panel at WAM 09 called In/Out of Focus, Broadening a Feminist Lens: Gender, Non-Conformity and the Media including our very own Miriam, Julia Serano, Jack Aponte and Kate Bovitch. It is excellent. They are discussing the different ways that gender variance intersects with feminism, femininity and the idea of woman and its relationship to identity based movement building. Also, what is the role of gender variance in media production and best practices on how to write about trans, gender non-conforming and gender variant community. Follow the discussion on twitter here. I am not even capturing the half of it, this panel is amazing.
