Anonymous, Actually I know a lot of Queer women in San Francisco with beards. It is part of Body-Positivity here in Queer San Francisco. You make the cliched accusation that I can’t face my gayness. You have no slot for MAB (Male At Birth) Femininity except a Gay Flamer or MAB’s who get electrolysis and choose to present as FAB. I combine an innately femme sense of self with a MAB presentation. I am a fashion activist creating spaces for visible MAB femininity. I assure you this is not an easy that Mab presenting femininity is no easy street.
The statement “you are making us look bad” is interesting, because of the importance ascribing a shared identity category.
Oh so you are a Mab presenting Femme Gender non-conformist too? Yay, now we can have two members of this identity category.
The identity politics are interesting again. Dee says that I should “Shut The Fuck Up.” This is outrage as a silencing tactic.
I agree with Dee that I do not speak for her, but I am free to speak openly about gender without being silenced.
Male femininity?
Is this some kind of post-modernist spoof?
You sir, are a JACKASS. STFU and mind your own business.
You do NOT speak for me.
what the fuck is wrong with you.
you’re making us look bad.
No woman in her right mind would want facial hair. I think you are just a gay guy who doesn’t want to be known as gay. Can’t face being gay, eh?

Sorry Stephanie, feminism in San Francisco has strongly influenced by Foucault & Butler. Are you guys still mired in Modernism?
