A few days ago, I shared an inspiring video by the intrepid Peachyoghurt, a “gender nonconforming” woman who never outgrew being a tomboy. She wants to help our daughters realize they don’t have to “transition” to be happy in their own bodies. If you haven’t watched it yet, you owe it to yourself to take 3 minutes out of your day to do it now. If you’ve got more time, she’s got several other videos to check out as well.
Peachyoghurt is collaborating with me and others to create a YouTube channel that will feature videos like hers. If you are interested in participating, or know anyone who might be, write to: womenstaywomen at gmail dot com. This channel. called “Women Forever,” will be a great counterbalance to the FTM Teen Transition Network (in other words, the huge mass of videos currently on YouTube exhorting our daughters to join the trend).
Awesome! Wonderful! I shared on Facebook.
1) Yay! I can’t wait to see the videos. A brief tech note: the peachyyogurt video I saw was made with software, there are apps on iPad and others that do this, for making a slideshow. Like for a wedding or more creepily a funeral. you put your photos in the app and it makes dissolves and zooms in and out on them. The music is in the app. They’re quite easy to use. I’m just saying that by way of encouragement to women who have something to share. 😊
Reblogged this on Stop Trans Chauvinism.
What a good and positive thing to start!! GNC women aren’t usually visible in media.
And that video made me want to go out and do something sporty outdoors…
Just lovely.
