I've been kicking this idea around in my head all day. I don't even know if I'll still find it interesting in the morning, but I figured, what the hell. I'll toss it in here anyways and get your thoughts.
The thing is, I've been considering creating a documentary film called 'Boy Lessons', where an ftm (probably me) who is on HRT but doesn't pass very well, goes out into the world to get lessons from cis men on how to make himself more manly. Ultimately, I'd hope, the ftm would discover what it really means to be a man - Is it really about the physical, what other people think, or what the ftm person himself thinks, or something else entirely. I'm not sure where it would end up. But it gives a lot of access to deconstruct gender stereotypes and privilege, and it gives exposure to the idea that the transgender community is not just made of transwomen. Cause really, us transmen are pretty much unicorns.
Anyways.
Thoughts? Ideas?
If I go ahead with the idea, I'd be down with it if somebody wanted to collaborate with me. Sometimes, it feels like there is so few of us, that this forum is home to all the transpeople that exist in the world.
