		Transfeminism is part of a social movement that is taking up trans/gressive acts and constructing learning communities built on gender-identity difference.
		Transfeminism, a menacing feminism, is pro-feminist (supportive of) as well as proto-feminist (archetypal; a prototype of feminism).
		Transsexual feminists articulate that transfeminism exemplifies the kind of self-determination that is a prerequisite of feminism.

		Koyama also points to the diverse strands of "transfeminism." Transfeminism has at least two distinct expressions in the trans community.
		It is about establishing transfeminism within the mainstream of feminism with specific content that relates to transsexuals' experiences, but which are applicable to all women.
		In it Koyama contends that "transfeminism is primarily of and for trans women who view their liberation to be intrinsically linked to the liberation of women as a whole.

	Out In The Mountains : A+E - Books: Self-Organizing Men - Writers Explore Trans-masculinities
		Some pieces reinforce gender norms based in male privilege, by focusing on female-to-male transsexuals' relationships to their bodies in terms of "lack," or by describing transsexual and transgendered men's struggles for acceptance as struggles for recognition as "real" men rather than for fully realized and respected selfhood.
		The best pieces, including essays by Aren Azura and Bobby Noble, and poems by hip-hop statesman Tim'm West and Vermont's own Eli Clare, contribute to the growing discourse of transfeminism, not merely seeking ethical models of manhood, but challenging the gender-binary scaffolding of patriarchy, and analyzing gender in relation to race, class, and capitalism.
		Tim'm West's poem closes the collection, a contribution of introspection and self-declaration from a place many FTMs choose to recover from the pain and aftermath of transition.

	In These Times \| Transfeminism: Let Her Rip
		It’s powerful and different and heavy and loud and, yes, scary as hell until you learn how to guide it, how to let it do what it does well.
		Transfeminism will take its place in the toolbox, and we will use it and use it well.
		Until then, we must ignore our ringing ears and buzzing teeth and continue to pick up that chainsaw, letting its roar announce our progress.

	Kate Horning '07: Interdiscipline and punish - Columns
		I will be the first to praise the academic flexibility that comes with having an interdisciplinary concentration.
		It has allowed the five gender studies students in this year's senior seminar to shape their courses of study according to themes ranging from transfeminism to creation of marked subjectivities, from eating disorders and media to intersex assignment surgeries.
		However, while the University claims to support our intellectual pursuits by funding a number of cross-listed courses, Brown has failed to support our programs as such, leaving concentrators desperate and potential concentrators disheartened.

		Tucker is also initiating an independent research project about “self organized” group process and organizational structures.
		By “transfeminism” we generally meant “…working across different forms of feminism, and in the same breath, we also want to recognize that trans/genderqueer people are daily trespassing in the gendered spaces of capitalism.
		Spaces which try to determine us biologically, which seek to confine us to recognizable markets, binary restrooms, and social roles.

		The popular meaning of feminism has been whittled down to these very narrow clichés, but in fact, it is a set of essential tools for ethical social practice and resistance to patriarchy, hierarchy, and capitalism.
		As far as transfeminism relating to media democratization, we didn’t privilege either one as a concern.
		We saw them as coextensive and interdependent struggles.

		Inspired by the horizontal distribution methods of the global independent media movement, Pilot TV sought to build a production space that would double as a convergence of queer and feminist anti-capitalists as well as a proving ground for direct democracy and mutual aid.
		Participants used the hybrid infrastructure of the TV studio to work (and play) through questions of biopolitical resistance, transfeminism, media democratization, and the “restaging” of protest.
		We will also screen “A Call and an Offering", the short documentary about the project.
