Abstract

The truth-telling in his piece is sin quo non to the unmasking needed to forge pathways to new gendered possibilities in troubled times toward transformative futures. I explore the affective embodied experience of living as a non-binary transmasculine person in a binary world. Drawing on the work of Jack Halberstam, Tami Spry, and Bryant Keith Alexander, this essay (and performance) is shared with/through my testosterone-lowered voice, my masculine-appearing body, and my non-binary orientations that ask the world to avoid the pitfalls of binarized gender relations. Performance autoethnography has long held space in the academy for the foregrounding of non-majoritarian lived experience through affective, interpersonal, and embodied strategies, and this piece builds on those traditions.
