"i used to daydream as a woman. i wonder why i stopped."
- Steven C. Wright, micro-transgenderisms

micro-transgenderisms Steven C. Wright mom gender-bent her mother’s name to give me my middle name. it’s not the only thing of grandma’s that i am. i wear her crooked smile. i look just like her daughter. mom says “god gifted me with three beautiful boys” and i say “something like that.” i don’t know if it’s sacrilege or a coming out. i think it’s neither. maybe it’s nothing. she still thinks i’ll raise a child. she says “you never know, maybe when you find the right guy,” then gets puzzled when i tell her i’d adopt. maybe she forgot that i don’t have a uterus. sometimes i forget, too. i used to daydream as a woman. i wonder why i stopped.

On the cover is a heavily textured painting by Jude FireSong consisting of layers of colour, first daubed or smeared, and then speckled. Dominant are red, orange, yellow, light blue, and medium blue though purple, green, and pink also make an appearance. Beside and below the cover is the following text: 20 writers, poets, & artists “as I move through the world, people project images of bodies and faces they assign onto me that evoke in themselves desire, lust, joy, disgust, emotions I have no say over. Perceptions against my will. And those images stain my skin and reek. I'm forced every day to carry those stains” Thokozani Mbwana engenderedlitmag.com

Diet Pep-cis, or my relationship to gender is Steven C. Wright a stupid pun, it’s an uncocked gun, it’s an aspartame rush, it’s a passive shrug, it’s a lazy judge, it’s a weak gavel bang, it’s a litany of sludge, it’s a wet rag wrung, it’s a benign tumor, it’s a false rumor, it’s a wildfire, it’s work (but I’m too tired), it’s fear (but I’ve forgotten), it’s broken rhymes in double time, it’s what I want, it’s what I can’t, it’s what I know, it’s what I don’t, it’s killing me, it’s eating her(?), it’s hair loss, it’s a hairline fracture, it’s gimme more, it’s Britney Spears, it’s give me less, it’s a credible threat, it’s poison seeping, it’s disease spreading, it’s one two three four five six seven panes of glass, it’s eight pains in the ass, it’s nine separate cardiac events, it’s counting to ten, it’s in bed by eleven, it’s a midnight drunk, it’s a midsummer dream, it’s Shakespeare, it’s caveman, it’s cave art, it’s the writing on the wall, it’s religious text, it’s blasphemy, it’s Jesus Christ, it’s sacrilege, it’s losing weight, it’s gaining it, it’s coughing up daisies, it’s chewing on foxgloves, it’s fantasy, it’s fantasia, it’s Zero Sugar Fanta-cis, it’s affect fucking, it’s straight up exhausting. It’s unclear to me; it’s aphantasia. The cover of engendered autumn 2025 on a background of dark grey.

🌻Research participation opportunity for queer people with disabilities🌻

Volume One of our magazine will feature a discussion about the intersectionality between disability and queerness in forming identity based on survey responses.
(1/2)
the color of the graphic is green. At the top there is a bulleted note that says "research participants needed" below the heading are 3 subtexts that say eligible participants must have a mental and/or physical disability and must be a part of the LGBTQ+ community. If you meet the criteria, you are invited to fill out the questionnaire for our intersectional study. To participate follow the directions in the caption. At the bottom of the graphic, there are two cartoon frogs in a pond together. One has a rainbow pride flag heart and the other has a trans pride flag heart. On their right is a duck in a reverse walker and another rainbow pride flag.

Gender is a performance and it's the school play. Mom and dad are recording me, they are so proud of their Boy. I'm stammering at the audience, pants fully pissed, panic attacking. Everyone is endeared regardless. "Such a sweet Boy. He is not good at performing, though."

sorry what's the bit
