‘Fucking Myself Goodbye’ is the title of the last chapter. It was going to be the title of the book but she was persuaded otherwise by her publisher. Ben-Zeev did her reading, torpid prose indeed and also very confusing. Talia is the woman she wants to fuck, – as a man, as Avi. She wanted connect to the physical parts of the herself which caused her pain and self-loathing. She can’t really do this via her imagination so settles instead on finding a Talia-lookalike (another trope of AGP males, trying to imitate the women in their lives).

Pechey has also written a book. The Book of Non-Binary Joy. It was certainly an uphill struggle getting people to believe that trans non-binary people exist. Pechey claims that books about non-binary people were ‘prescriptive’ or ‘telling you how to be’ – showcasing that he has literally no clue of the genre.

Review of book: ‘Transsexual Apostate’ by Debbie Hayton
Mother would throw her laddered tights in the bin and little Dobbie would retrieve them, covered in potato peelings, ‘or worse’ (Loc 142) and wear them. He was aged five.

The T in LGBT: Tea with Jamie Raines
Jamie Raines aka Jammidodger has over a million subscribers on YouTube. At the time of writing her latest post, uploaded three days ago, had already received 77 thousand views. It’s normal for her to get over one hundred thousand hits, or even millions of hits, for her posts.
Her current pinned post is ‘Bad Women’s Anatomy is Getting WORSE’. In it, she’s ‘natural’ and chatty on camera, including clips of herself tripping up over the phrase ‘trans inclusive’, which could easily be edited out, but clearly kept in to add to the aesthetic of her don’t care/affable persona. In the video she makes simplistic links between women’s bodies and misogyny. So this is a ‘man’ who wants to lecture her teen girl audience about how awful men are, showcasing her ability to empathise with women, which is all too understandable when she is one. This is who her audience is then, girls who are unsure about their changing bodies.
