In GBA 224 we get better acquainted with AJ. She talks about writing and performing poetry, finding her poetry voice as a result of transitioning, responding to banter culture, transphobia and transmisogyny, kink, sex and sexuality. This was a snatched conversation during the Edinburgh Fringe 2015 where we were both did solo shows. Our shows had a lot of cross over and that's reflected in the conversation.\n\nAJ plugs:\n\nA Lady of a Certain Rage: http://www.lulu.com/shop/aj-mckenna/a-lady-of-a-certain-rage/paperback/product-21075072.html\n\nThe Gunshots that Kill Us Are Silenced: https://ajmckenna.bandcamp.com/album/the-gunshots-which-kill-us-are-silenced\n\nPublic Address III: http://www.applesandsnakes.org/page/108/PUBLIC+ADDRESS+THE+SOAPBOX+TOUR/1597\n\n@AnathemaJane: https://twitter.com/anathemajane\n\n\nI plug:\n\nStand Up Tragedy presents.... https://www.facebook.com/events/461679520679231/\n\nStand Up Tragedy: Tragic Autumn: http://www.facebook.com/events/1453089018350037/\n\n#ManSurvey: http://www.mansplainingmasculinity.co.uk/\n\nWe mention:\n\nStand Up Tragedy: http://standuptragedy.co.uk\nCis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisgender\nDavid Cameron: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Cameron\nUKIP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Independence_Party\nJeremy Clarkson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Clarkson\n#KillAllMen: https://stavvers.wordpress.com/2013/05/07/kill-all-men/\nhttps://medium.com/matter/the-meme-ification-of-misandry-3b0c95ad51f5\nBahar Mustafa: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/education/education-news/bahar-mustafa-goldsmiths-university-diversity-officer-could-lose-job-after-being-accused-by-students-10260697.html\n#FuckCisPeople: https://cisnormativity.wordpress.com/2013/08/17/disrupting-the-politics-of-etiquette/\nKate Fox: http://katefox.co.uk/\nAngela Readman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angela_Readman\nRich Mix: http://www.richmix.org.uk/\nThe Bathroom Thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7qfU45jhOQ\nQueer'Say: http://bit.ly/1OGtG04\nDaniel Bye: http://www.danielbye.co.uk/\nMarina Abramovi\u0107: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marina_Abramovi%C4%87\nSarah Thomasin: http://sarahthomasin.com/\nKate Tempest: http://katetempest.co.uk/\nStewart Lee: http://www.stewartlee.co.uk/\nIf You'd Prefer A Milder Comedian Please Ask for One: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stewart-Lee-Prefer-Milder-Comedian/dp/B003XMVGYQ\nJosie Long: http://www.josielong.com/\nFun Home by Alison Bechdel: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fun_Home\nEggshells: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUQdVTNnr_4\nStonewall: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonewall_riots\nMattachine Society: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mattachine_Society\nFerguson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferguson_unrest\nAutogynephilia: http://www.tsroadmap.com/info/autogynephilia.html\nDSM: http://psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/dsm\nBreuer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_Breuer\nCharcot: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Martin_Charcot\nFreud: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmund_Freud\nHirschfeld: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Hirschfeld\nParaphilia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphilia\nTopping from the Bottom: http://houseofvoid.com/2012/04/18/topping-from-the-bottom-what-does-it-mean/\nFay Roberts: http://www.fayroberts.co.uk/\n6 Sexes: http://www.nature.com/news/sex-redefined-1.16943\nNiels Bohr: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr\nMy Revelation Will Not Be Trivialised: https://ajmckenna.bandcamp.com/track/my-revelation-will-not-be-trivialised\nGil Scott-Heron: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Scott-Heron\nPegging: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegging_(sexual_practice)\nChella Quint: https://chellaquint.wordpress.com/\nKyriarchy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyriarchy\nChelsea Poe: http://chelseapoe.com/\nKasey Platt - A Safe Girl to Love: https://alumni.columbia.edu/node/984451\nGender dysphoria: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_dysphoria\nTransmisogyny: http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Transmisogyny
