I just finished reading M. Christian's anthology, Transgender Erotica: Trans Figures . And I'm sad to say I didn't like it much.
This is definitely an example of how my politics are inextricably linked to my libido. I just can't get turned on by stuff that's politically questionable. There's a vast difference between eroticizing the forbidden and exoticizing people for their gender (or any other feature) in ways that scream "I'm clueless and disrespectful."
