Guest post by "Allie" > If you only have the concept of being transgender or not, then what Irma/Irving is expressing is very confusing. I can't blame Sarah as it must seem confusing. This. All the same, it is kinda disappointing to see her both policing Irma's gender, and not challenging her presciptive definition of "maleness" Sarah has ALWAYS had a very narrow definition of gender. Look at how many times Sarah's said she doesn't want to do something because "Girls don't do that". Not "I don't want to", but "Girls don't do that, I'm a girl, I shouldn't do that". She limits her own options because of her narrow, preconceived notions of femaleness. Hopefully now this will change that. (I'm not saying her interests will change- but, actually, they might. She seems to put too much effort into trying to prove she's a girl that she ignores everything else that makes her who she is.) |
