In August of 1990 I found myself laying on my stomach in the woods with a pair of binoculars, a bottle of Canadian Club, and my friend Kurt Cobain. The reason why I had the binoculars was because I was the lookout while he ran across the street to a “teen pregnancy center” that had just opened in our town. It really wasn’t a teen pregnancy center, it was a right-wing con where they got teenage girls to go in there and then told them they were going to go to hell if they had abortions. Since Kurt and I were angry young feminists in the ’90s we decided that we were going to do a little public service that night. We drank our Canadian Club and he watched out while I went across the street and wrote, “Fake abortion clinic, everyone,” because I was kind of like the pragmatic one or whatever. He was more creative so he went over and in six-foot-tall red letters he wrote, “God is gay.” [applause]

This ongoing body of work explores the power dynamics inherent in the questions asked of transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, gender-variant, and/or gender non-conforming people.

Many documentary photographic projects that deal with trans issues exploit the genders of their subjects, pointing to an “otherness” or inappropriately exoticizing their bodies.

colorfulacoustic: liquorinthefront: Lady Gaga as Jo Calderone Friends I jjust heard of Jo Calderone because, like, I saw this picture and was like “wtf is this and WHY IS THIS PERSON BINDING LIKE THIS?!”  And then I realized that this is Lady GaGa’s alter-ego?  Which sounds kind of cool and I am interested in learning more about this, but like… um seriously I hope that people  don’t take Lady GaGa’s binding techniques seriously? I mean, it&#8217;s an interesting image artistically, but I agree, I feel like she is probably not aware of the fact that binding in this way is something a lot of really unhappy trans* youth have tried to do for long periods of time, which is super not good for things like their bodies and their breathing; for a lot of people, looking at this image is an incredibly emotional reminder of an unhappy past or present.   And that&#8217;s really interesting and a deep artistic statement&#8230;&#8230;that I don&#8217;t think Lady GaGa is aware of.  If that makes sense.  Which is why this bothers me a little bit.
