First World Feminism
What's the point of this website?

A fair question. Two quick answers:

1. Those of us lucky enough to live in the most progressive parts of the world tend to focus on how good we have it, and yet we still haven’t achieved true gender equality.

2. I’m over trying to pitch women’s magazines. If the story isn’t about slimmer thighs for summer, they’re just not interested.

This stuff is important, I’ll try not to make it too dry.

My Interview with Jay Kallio

I tracked down Jay Kallio, who left the now famous “Go live as a man for one week” comment on Nancy Bauer’s “Lady Power” piece in The New York Times, and spoke to him about being a transgender man in our society. As a former woman who presents as a man, Jay has rare insights into what life is like on the other side.
