WOC and Allies Blog Carnival!

I am very excited to share that the Tell it WOC Speak (and allies) blog carnival is up with some fantastic entries, kicked off by Transgriot blogger Monica's piece Becoming a Quality Black Woman. The Carnival includes entries from across the planet on topics including Sexual Violence, Racism and Colonialism, Feminism, Identity, Sex and Sexuality, Gender, and Politics. I am very proud to have two blog posts (One week until Inauguration and all things are not equal, and My wuzband is a drag king (and queen)) published in the Carnival and humbled to among some fabulous writers and women. Thank you, Renee, for putting this amazing thing together!

Wuzband:
My legally married spouse, a delicious blend of male/female. She calls herself a woman loving woman. Too queer for easy definition.

Drag King:
As a drag king she is simply slipping further into her natural maleness. She wears men's clothes anyway -- kind of an old school hip-hop surfer dude look. And she loves to sport expensive, tailored, kick-ass suits for special events. Barry White is just a step beyond the every day.

Drag Queen:
As a drag queen, she gender bends to her other self, her not as natural femaleness (which is different from her womaness) She works a woman like a man dressed as a woman because in essence that's what she is. Yet not.
