This essay has been on my to-read pile ever since it was published. Just finished it this morning and can only wish I got to it sooner! Such an incredible and necessary piece. Take the time to read it yourself!

Just be careful that you only ever tell Talia and her community things that are complimentary & only ever completely agree with them. I literally just said I see things slightly differently from them & they all dogpiled me hard. Not to say she's wrong/bad, just be aware of the community around her.
It's a real shame bc she does seem truly gifted when it comes to essays & truly does deserve praise for her work, just seems to be like the praise might have gone to her and her communities head so, if you say anything they perceive as negative, you'll not have a fun time, speaking from experience.
it’s so so good!! such a direct and clear eviseration of the rotten transmisogynistic core that runs through so much popular queer theory. as much of talia’s work tends to be!
Thank you for writing it!! it’s suuuuch a necessary theoretical challenge to the transmisogynistic foundations that underlies so much of queer academic theory. i will definitely be pushing it into a lot of folks’ hands going forward.
