Transboys
» Gender Outsiders: Transgendered & Others
But over the weekend I was introduced to a variety of these no-hormones, no-surgery "boy poseurs". They were all fiercely intelligent, aged from 16 to 26 and identified variously as "boiz", "hes" "shes" and one "queer genderfreak transboygirl fagdyke". Their role models were people such as gender warrior academic and author of Female Masculinity (Duke University Press) Judith Halberstam, and Village Voice sex columnist Tristan Taormino.
Why do New York's lesbian sheboys call themselves "he"?

Hey, I want to ask how to meet transboys/men for friendship, dating whatever. I’m a 17 yr old lesbian and after watching ‘tipping the velvet’ (last year sometime) I find that really attractive. Any advice on how to do this would be wonderful.
