Tranvocalizers — Diane Michelle

What we are focusing on are transgender vocalists/entertainers whose main tool of presentation is through singing. This month we feature TG vocalist Diane Michelle. […]
Breakfast on Pluto — Wild Cards, Busted Flush
Our science fiction commentator, Misty Carpenter, has been sidelined for most of the year.

We wish her all the best and […]
Dawn of the Dead: Transphobic?
I’d seen it at least a dozen times already, most recently around Halloween, but something put me in the mood to watch Zach Snyder’s remake of Dawn of the Dead again last night.

Dr. Osbo’s Bridge Club — Shame, Guilt and the Damage Done
Okay, I know this sounds like a downer for starting off the New Year, and I apologize for that. The fact is that I got confused about when my next column was due and had no time to write a brand new one, so I’m recycling a paper I gave at IFGE a year or […]

Lexy Tranner, Weekend CD
A person’s home says a lot about them. Lexy’s home is no different. It’s filled with the things that define her life and tell visitors just who she is… ah, if you’re hiding a second life because you don’t want people to know there are two of you — one masculine and one feminine — […]

What do a bear suit, a harp, and a bad moment as a tree surgeon have in common? Well, in a sane, practical world, probably nothing. But in the life and world of transgender musician Baby Dee, these are all part of her story.
