Breathe: Journeys to Healthy Binding | Maia Kobabe, Sarah Peitzmeier
post image
Pickpick

"Affirming your gender can be joyful and safe! If your current binding method isn't doing it for you, experiment with other methods. There is a better one out there for you." ?️‍⚧️

I read this to improve my understanding of the non-binary and transmasc experience of binding, and to inform my work in a general NHS counselling service, which is accessible for trans clients.

This graphic guide has personal accounts of several people who bind, ⬇️

Bookwomble ... advice on safe binding, exercises devised by physiotherapists specialising in trans healthcare, and some reflective exercises to develop insight into personal goals and and what may foster movement towards them

Kobabe and Peitzmeier provide an excellent introduction to the subject, with plenty of practical information for its main target readership. 5⭐

An eye-opening and vulnerable sharing of the author‘s coming-out story as non-binary, in a culture that still is largely fixated on people identifying as one gender or the other, even if they are LGBT. I particularly appreciated the author‘s emergence reflected in varying responses of friends and family and ongoing fear of coming out and how to articulate it. I could also appreciate the extreme pain of a Pap test! #Nonfiction2024 #NotAllBoys

If I Go Missing | Brianna Jonnie

I'm not obtuse to the statistics surrounding missing indigenous women. Based on what became viral request for police to actively search for the letter writer should she go missing if effort to not become a statistic herself is powerful! This is a very quick read with a glossary for additional resources and information.

DogMomIrene This book is incredibly powerful. 2d

I loved being back with Gertrude. She hasn‘t changed at all. This volume was sparkling with writer‘s joy.

I also loved chapter 5 where you can download a song and have it playing while you‘re “reading” the fight game.

AmyG These are amazing. I love the bad Mom card. Once, when we moved, my kids asked me what was for dinner. It was a LONG day and a friend had brought us donuts earlier. I put the box on the table and said….here, dinner. Bad Mom Card #563 2d
