"We Are Everywhere" Project |

A few people have posted links to the "We Are Everywhere" mapping project over at ftm@LJ, and I thought I'd crosspost it.
Quoted from the website:
"When I started transition, in my small community of 1200, I had very limited exposure to transmen. While I remembered seeing transwomen on talk shows as a teenager, I couldn’t recall seeing transmen in popular media (aside from tragic stories like Boys Don’t Cry), and concluded that we must be a rare breed indeed. In the time since then, I’ve realized that I couldn’t have been more wrong in that assumption.
"The more I delve into the FTM community, the more I am able to judge the large scope of it. Just like Deadheads, transmen are everywhere!" All you have to do is is enter a name/alias - apart from that you can include as much or as little information as you like (your postal code, your city, or even just your region.) The point is to put a box on the map that represents you, to demonstrate that trans men are not some tiny little group, nor confined to one particular region or area. |
