'Femme' describes a constellation of queer, gendered expressions that uproot expectations of what it means to be feminine. Transfeminists take their experiences of desire, belonging and harm to create collective power through femininity, fighting for marginalised and non-conforming people.
Trans Femme Futures enriches this power. As trans people find themselves increasingly oppressed, envisioning a future is an act of revolution. The authors discuss struggles around trans healthcare and the need for collective autonomy, the importance of practising self-care, transfeminism as abolition, and the role of Social Reproduction Theory.
Ultimately the authors show how social transformation can be achieved through harnessing the knowledge that trans femmes are, have been and can be agents of transformative practices that allow queer life to thrive, especially in this current moment of climate, health, political and economic crises.
