It’s been a big year for Bergdorf, as this Penguin how-to/self-help book, called Talk To Me (how to talk about the things that matter) was published. And there was also the documentary Love & Rage: Munroe Bergdorf. These were released within days of each other. As of the date of writing, there is one review on Amazon, and, unusually, not a single endorsement embedded into the official blurb. These people all have the same agent, so it’s not like there’s a dearth of Z-list slebs to gush over the truly inexecrable, therefore I suspect a marketing choice.

Don’t sweat the small stuff: My (sort of) superpower
About twenty years ago, my epiphany that not-all-people-think-like-me came when I was telling a new friend a night at the cinema had been ruined by a bobbing head. I was annoyed with myself, but also still with the bobber. She laughed her head off. Didn’t even pretend.

‘Is Transphobia the New Homophobia?’
Collins allowed more critical questions to be asked than I have ever witnessed in these spaces, though things were rather pre-empted by the question: Is Transphobia the New Homophobia?

Trans History (and why it matters to you) – training for NHS staff
Davison’s preferred term to discuss all things trans was the nebulous-sounding ‘transness’. Really this was so he could go ‘ooh, that’s a bit trans’ about everything. Material reality wasn’t really a thing, Davison told us, quietly introducing the concept of ‘cisness’ to the assembled horde of NHS workers, using the cryptic example of ‘some people having a much more complicated relationship with their bodies’.
Review of documentary – Love & Rage: Munroe Bergdorf
The director of the film, Olivia Cappuccini, thanked Bergdorf for letting her into his world, which was the ‘epitome of freedom’. Bergdorf was someone we should be grateful to be in the presence of, for the joy and euphoria Bergdorf imparts onto this world was unique. Such gibberish was a sure sign the documentary was not only going to be illiterate, but also a masterclass in arse-licking.
Review: Ugly Sisters
A summary of the plot: Once upon a time a woman said something a man didn’t like and the man spent the rest of his life feeling spooked. It did have a fairy tale quality to it in that respect. In this specific case, the woman was Germaine Greer and the man, a tranny.
