I have traveled with a partner and with several tour groups. I will only travel with Road Scholar from now on, after several trips with them. People like tour groups for various reasons, so one tour group is not a match for everyone’s priorities. Road Scholar is a popular option f...

With the dawn of a new year, we’re all in that liminal space of reflection and visioning and with it comes grief, hope, excitement, disappointment and a whole host of other emotions. While I wish you all a very happy new year, I wonder how often we arrive at this inner space, and as each of us...

This year I ran the quiz “How much is patriarchy ruling your life and career?” As I mentioned in this article, 94% of you believe that “you should be able to achieve a life-work balance.” What was the next top patriarchal belief among the survey respondents? 67% ...

When I lived in New Mexico I had some beef with a white boy who was married to an Afro-American woman; the daughter was in my youth group. I knew this punk was going to be trouble when we had a team bonding at a pizza place, they strictly enforced wearing masks. This punk was the only dude who would...

How does any group chip away at another group’s rights and opportunities? If history is any indication, it’s done little by little, like axing a tree piece by piece. At least, that’s the case when we consider the case of Black Americans. Over the past few years, conservatives have ...

Walk through the world and tell me what a woman is. I mean really is. Without falling back on stereotypes or cultural norms. She is tall, short, thin, plump, chubby, cute, beautiful, striking, dowdy, frumpy, ugly, messy hair, perfect hair, make-up trowelled on, no make-up at all, bushy eyebrows...

I heard the screams before I saw her face. Deep, ancient howls. The agony of all women since the beginning of time. My stomach turned, knotted. I did not want to see, but I had no choice. I did not want to know, but somewhere deep, I knew. I gently pushed aside the partition of plastic bags strun...

This photo is from women’s suffrage — how long ago? The supreme court ‘for now’ upheld Idaho’s near abortion ban — this in emergency rooms where a woman is more than likely fighting for her life. I don’t even know what to say. How many deaths will it take, o...

I was recently interviewed by the New York Times about my work and writings as a trans feminist. From pre-interview conversations we shared, I knew that my interviewer planned to ask me about Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s comments from earlier this year wherein ...

The passage from my diary in October 2020 below says it all: “A topic has been on my mind for some time: women’s fear of crime. I saw a post on IG from one of those activism pages and it was about what women would do if no men existed for a day. The post featured responses like “I...

Usually, the supporters of women’s rights and equality between men and women emphasize that women’s clothing is a completely individual choice and should be free from any judgment and restrictions. But research shows that the type of clothes some women in the society wear may have an im...

Why is strolling in the women’s section in a mall like strolling in a field? Because it is full of crops. Crop tops as far as the eye can see. And I can’t see it anymore. What do I have against crop tops? Hmm… let’s see, where do I begin? It’s nothing offensive, I a...

Navigating the psychological battlefield of swimsuit shopping is an experience I’ve reluctantly embarked on. The joy of acquiring new attire is often eclipsed by the frustration of finding a suitable fit. Standard sizes are no longer standard. While I’ve come to terms with the realiti...

I didn’t want abs. I didn’t want any kind of topography in that region of my body. I wanted my stomach to glide seamlessly into…well, into whatever was below (I was pretty disassociate from that, if not all, parts of my body). Essentially, I wanted the build of a ten year old. And...
