I have transferred this from the comments to a post as I felt Leslie Feinberg merits being read rather than be buried in the comments section of a post from days ago.
"Free to narrate novels, but not to
counter-narrate my actual life in publicity tours"
I thank Women Born Transsexual. A hostile biological relative—Catherine Ryan Hyde—has had a whole paid publicity book tour, funded by Knopf, in which she has counter-narrated my early identity to audiences in a way that contradicted my own self-definition, then and now. And she claimed me as "family."
