"Transfems and transmascs and enbies, oh my!"

I keep talking about "non-binary" this and "gender-fluid" that...  I figured I ought to give you a quick primer on all the gender-related terminology I'll be using throughout the rest of the podcast.

And then, since this is me we're talking about, the "quick primer" devolved into a whole exploration of the rich world of gender and why it's so important that I'm writing a whole musical about it.

You shouldn't stop at the word of a cis guy when it comes to any of this, though.  Maybe Burke, Schuyler Bailar, and Alok Menon are just three of the many gender-expansive educators out there providing resources to help navigate what may feel to some of you like a new, alien world beyond the binary of male and female.  For further reading, check out the novel Detransition, Baby by Torrey Peters and the Alicia Roth Weigel's memoir Inverse Cowgirl.

Special thanks to Nick Myers for letting me include instrumental arrangements of our songs "Anthem" and "Jenny" as background music.
