When I told my therapist that thanks to her I’d gone from ‘woman’ to ‘trans woman,’ she ended up completely lost, poor thing

When I was little, they told me I had the wrong brain in the right body... I got dysphoria! When I became an adult, they told me the opposite , that I had the right brain in the right body... I got dysphoria again!

if a trans woman lets herself be brought down by a witty remark, she’ll never dare to leave the house again (Shakespeare, Much Ado About Nothing)

The patriarchal domination that can sometimes show up with certain trans women — whether in trans-inclusive lesbian relationships or in women’s artistic collectives — does not make it some kind of “gender colonialism” that would invalidate trans identity the way TERFs like to claim.

8 in the morning, pool with the girls!

By what incredible process of inversion have we come to see those who commit the most violence , or cover it up, or justify it , as some kind of moral bulwark against those who fight the hardest for protection?

It’s always very telling to see the community that’s worked the hardest on consent being dismissed as ideology

I’m really sorry I can’t read or like posts from people I care about anymore, but for my mental health I only have access to my own publishing page.

We went from an unthinkable existence to one that was denied, then pathologized, and finally to one that is recognized ,and we should be rejoicing.

The spiral evolution that the human species has adopted, allowing it to progress along two opposing evolutionary lines without ever abandoning either one, seems to have resumed its rotation on the side of its last shift

Of course, I don’t open any news feeds anymore or read articles online — I just stick to my print subscriptions.

I’m sorry I haven’t been reacting to your posts anymore, but with the rise in transphobic violence, for now I’m limiting myself to only opening my publishing page

In safety aquariums, shielded from our great jaws, the whiteness of their fragile skin!

Damn, we pay a hell of a price for visibility

Supremacism is demanding that minorities mourn the supremacists

Conspiracy-style education + micro virtual community = dumb nihilism

What happens when white people discover that they too are vulnerable?

I’m watching a lighthearted Korean romance: Mr. Queen! In it, a cis woman finds herself inhabited by the psyche of another cis man.

What the electorate of liberal democracies based on the principle of majority rule doesn’t seem to understand is that people are not being asked to weigh in on a program or an area of expertise, but mainly on the fate reserved for minorities and the most vulnerable

patching up shoes with whatever you’ve got

Delegitimizing the LGBTQIA+ world in the name of a so-called ideology means forgetting that this is, above all, about the political engagement of our bodies. Just as the refusal of some gays and lesbians to identify with the queer world is itself political… Our bodies are political!

Just a twelve-hour drive!

Every day, power in America shows us just how dangerous stupidity can be for democracies

Trans identity does not stem from a personality disorder; rather, the personality disorder some trans people experience arises from the impossibility of accessing an appearance that matches who they are

My parents’ homophobia and transphobia pushed me out of the family home when I was 16. Today, I just found out my dad is in the hospital. They need me, but it’s becoming more and more clear that I won’t see them again until they’re on their deathbed

I’m old enough to remember an interview with either Peter Ustinov or George Steiner,I don’t quite recall which,where he said,in essence,that the English resisted the temptation to capitulate to a Germany that had turned into a Nazi Europe,which otherwise could only win,simply by changing the subject

because trans girls don’t just kill little kids or rape other girls in the bathroom

Order’s done... and yeah, I work for straight people too

Back in the studio for wedding commissions

No to the precedent of a legal racist genocide by white supremacists

Who sleeps well these days, with the dead of Gaza before us… Insomnia for all of us who take part!

It was thirty years ago, a famous and very charismatic clergyman opened me up to the unknown, inaccessible secrets of Mont Saint-Michel. I had never gone back since that little seduction trick meant to kiss me on the mouth in some hidden corner!

Vacances !

Creatures feel like creatures, trans people are trans. Many feel like creatures and are also trans. Don’t use one to invalidate the other

I just watched the Arte documentary "The Mysterious Treasures of Nigeria, The Secrets of the Nok Terracottas", and honestly, I didn’t think it was still possible in 2025 for university researchers to produce something this racist, with such blatant ignorance of decolonial scholarship

When I was little, my dad used to scare me with some kind of boogeyman who ate “not normal” kids , the Ratra Moulana (راترا مولانا). I’ve never been able to figure out what that’s supposed to be, so if anyone has any clues, I’m all ears.

Seven o’clock, French time, time to get outraged, good morning!

Pour out the water from a bouquet onto the battered asphalt; in the middle of the puddle: I shall be! Before the cemented ruins of abandoned surfaces, celebrating water and fire in the frozen image of sacred tags, upright: I shall stand!

regarder dans la même direction

I got my first rape at eleven, and my first hospitalization for physical violence the same age. I went through a violent conversion therapy, was rejected by my family after I emancipated myself,

1 – Individuality: awareness of one's own tastes and desires

I'm fifty years old today, and to me, belonging to a minority isn’t some kind of badge you give yourself or just a feeling you have.

I realized I was racist the first time I felt ashamed of being seen with my parents , and for me, conversion therapy was mostly about learning how to become a cis white man

I understand that it might be hard to grasp for cis people, but as a French citizen, I would have preferred if Brigitte Macron, as First Lady, had simply said she was honored to be seen as a trans woman — even if she isn’t one!
