ok.

this is not a unique archive project. it will hopefully grow over time. i have been downloading a bunch of files from a few sources that i'll name below as well as using my search engine skills and just being someone who collects things that interest me. periodicals include issues of "on our backs," "anything that moves," "transisters," "lesbians talk," and "fat girl magazine."

there's the gender dysphoria bible and a guide to DIY HRT. there are writings on butch identity (and a couple of coloring books featuring historical butches). even though everything is in english, i am aiming to create a multicultural database. anyone who has title suggestions for me, your input is very welcome!

guides and databases I have used include @stemmehistorian's pinned post, the middle and ring lesbian archive, and @tslurcollective's archive post.

i will make a disclaimer that i have not read everything in this drive. i know there is some transphobia, transmisogyny, racism, and biphobia among these resources. the aim is to present both theory and history as a roadmap showing where we've been as well as where we can go forward.
