Hey folks, I worked out some special pricing on the TRUhKs camouflage samples (pictured on me above) for all my fantastic followers. Now you can rock a camo-style button-fly harness for $29.99 instead of $49.99. That’s $20 off!
Use these TRUhKs to be camo wherever you go! No matter how bright your personality (and attire) is, you can still go stealth! The TRUhKs are excellent for a multitude of uses whether you want to pack, play, or just use them as underwear! For more information, you can check out my review of the TRUhKs here.
To get your pair for $29.99 just use this link. No coupon code required. All purchases will ALSO automatically help fund my transition!
This is a great deal for a great product.

Ze said unto Hir people ‘You do not have to celebrate those who use your proper Words and recognize the validity of your existence. You do not have to be grateful for them. No more than you are grateful for and celebrate the Stranger you passed the other day because they did not punch you in the face simply because you were there. These are the behaviors of Basically Decent People. They are a starting point. Not a special goal to be achieved.’

We Graduate People: Trans* Experience at Smith College
By Alamia Charles:
“We Graduate People” is a project that I worked on for my Advanced Documentary Production class in Spring of 2013 at Smith College.
It is a documentary that depicts 2 trans* people’s experiences at Smith College, and the Microaggressions that each of them faced at a liberal institution.
This film, because of time constraints, only addresses the experiences of two people that identify with the gender binary and in no way represents every trans* person that attends, will attend, or attended Smith College.
Through this project I hoped to give a voice to those on campus that often do not have a voice.
