Self-Organizing Men

By Jay Sennett

Subjects: Gender nonconformity, Female-to-male transsexuals, Masculinity, Gender identity, Transsexualism

Description: The roles of paradox and incoherence in the construction and maintenance of the masculine self remains unexplored in both gender and men's studies. *Self-Organizing Men* - through poetry, visual images, prose and humor - seeks to understand how paradox and the failure to cohere to a unitary self creates opportunities for sustained connections to sexual love, the penis, childhood, and vulnerability as well as disrupts traditional transsexual narratives of masculinity and the gendered body. Contributors include: Eli Clare, Scott Turner Schofield, Tim'm T. West, Dr. Bobby Noble, Nick Kiddle, Eli VandenBerg, Jordy Jones, Doran George, Aren Z. Aizura, and Gaylourdes. Editor Jay Sennett is an award-winning author, screenwriter and filmmaker.
