Dealing with the Trans discourse

Published: March 29, 2021, 2:03 p.m.

b'It\\u2019s obvious I\\u2019ve been out of the running for a bit. I thought i had my research done right, but Neel kept on proving me wrong. Isn\\u2019t it wonderful to have so many international connections who teach you something at every turn? In this case, Neel points out the trans discourse when it comes to cultural differences between trans women and Hijra people in India. And that\\u2019s just one example.\\n\\nAnyway, every now and again we\\u2019re tired of the trans discourse \\u2122, but we can miss out on it as well. Me as much as everybody else. This isn\\u2019t related to the episode perse, but it is something I wanted to share with you. The limited social interactions I\\u2019ve had recently have been disappointingly cis. I\\u2019m blessed with a lot of friends but I do miss hanging out with other Queer folks. Relatable?
