Notes

  • Epigraph:

    And that was not homophobia, pure and simple people. That was gendered. If I’d of been more feminine, that would not have happened. I am incorrectly female. – Hannah Gadsby. Nannette What disturbed me was the scorn of the other boys, not for my sexuality, which they accepted and sometimes enjoyed, but for a feminine sensibility which they despised… – Patrick White.

    'When we put out the call for TRANSQUEER we asked poets ‘to explore trans identities not as positions to defend but as modes of becoming and thus ways of being human’ (Joy Ladin, Trans Studies Quarterly, 2016: 640) and ‘to believe that the world is QUEER, or that oneself is, or both, [and that this] is a window of doubt through which all creative possibility comes into being’ (Mark Doty, The Art of Description: World into Word).'  (Stuart Barnes and Quinn Eades : Introduction)
