Georgia O’Keeffe, Alfred Stieglitz and Patti Smith

I have long been an admirer of O'keefe, whom I learned about coincidently from Patti Smith. I specifically recall seeing a documentary on O'Keefe while in my teens. O'keefe was in her early 90's. I clearly remember thinking how interesting and beautiful she was still, even in her 90's. I think it was through the still very intelligent and beautiful 92 year old O'Keefe that forever removed the sheen of the younger and younger (pedophilic?) male masturbatory gaze forever from me, that sick gaze we're all groomed into believing.

This is a wonderful article on Patti's discussion of Stieglitz's letters with a few MUST LISTEN TO highlights! Enjoy! And what better way to send out the year, with two very intelligent, strong, talented, and unsubscribing to the gender straight jacket women!

Be strong and proud of yourselves ladies! Most of all, be a rebel!

The Gender Straight Jacket at the Heart of FemaleTransition and Fear

From a board I was emailed a link to this morning, where 'bouts this space is being whined about how "anti-feminist" it is:






A young female transitioner who clearly hasnt found happiness in her ongoing transition BUT in what she feels is a perk of that ongoing transition, not having (like other females) to where a skirt to court. So rather than work to challenge the ignorant patriarchal notions of the gender straight jacket that these courts are upholding, she prides herself in hiding her own femaleness behind facial hair and a lower voice. Sounds rather "anti-feminist" to me, no? Also it is yet more proof of how the internalization of misogyny and the gender straight jacket are working to develop this trans disorder among females.

Challenge patriarchy, challenge misogyny, challenge the gender straight jacket, do NOT cower in the face of fear by turning that fear inward! Change society, not your brain and body!

So Much Fear and Hatred From This Trans Community

A few comments awaiting moderation AND on Christmas of all the days of the year.

Not surprisingly both comments (perhaps from the same girl?) were on the poignant guest post from a female transitioner who decided to take steps to detransition as best she could. To those who develop this societal disorder, transition is the fairytale-happily-ever-after-story, when the book is closed and they're confronted with reality, violence and anger set in. The fact is there hasnt been a single happily ever after transition story, not one. There is no happiness found when the troubled mind remains troubled. Brutalizing the body to achieve mental happiness and stability remains a fairytale, comments such as these prove that.
