#Sinophone #Transtopia

#TransDayOfRemembrance 22+ years ago, the tragic story of Yeh Yung-chih (1985–2000) happened here, in this bathroom of Gaoshu Junior High in Pingtung County, #Taiwan. A rose appears under the sign of the now renovated boy's bathroom. Is it enough? Absolutely not. So we remember the distance we've come and how much more we can do. :transgender_flag: #transtopia

Just reviewed the proofs today. This essay is forthcoming in the January 2023 issue (v. 32, no. 1) of the Journal of the History of Sexuality. :trans_heart: #transtopia
