He-Males, She-Males, He-Shes and They/Thems
in the blur of nonbinary newness and gender ideological mudslinging, it seems we’ve forgotten there’s always been both he-males and she-males, both he-shes and they/thems, butches, bitches and femmes. biological definitions of gender are just part of our current cultural mythology that rates science over soul the exterior over the interior and hides the sacredContinue reading “He-Males, She-Males, He-Shes and They/Thems”
The Long War on Trans and Gay People
As Spring approaches and a UK General Election looms, the debased and immoral Tories continue their cultural war against so-called ‘gender ideology’, with the vitriol directed mainly at born males who embody a strong feminine energy – transgender, effeminate, epicene, androgyne, mollie, intermediate type, woman-ish man: there have always been terms, in societies across theContinue reading “The Long War on Trans and Gay People”
The She in the He is the She in EveryBody
People are the mystery: some are sexy, some are stubborn, others are flexi; some people create and others just consume, some follow the trends, some sing their own tune.

The division of gender and sexuality into neatly defined and labelled boxes by the new scientific kids on the block, psychology and sociology, from the late 19th century onwards has never sat well with some gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. There have always been queer voices in the west who objected to the limitationsContinue reading “The Third Gender”
THE GENDER SPECTRUM
The idea that male and female are two distinct and separate genders, into one or other of which everybody is supposed to fit, is a very modern, patriarchal model that, although now widely spread through the world, has no basis or grounding in history, or in biological nor spiritual fact. It is high time weContinue reading “THE GENDER SPECTRUM”
