What would a trans-utopia look like? How would our society be structured if transphobia didn’t exist? How would trans identities flourish if they didn’t have to fight against the oppression of institutional heteronormativity across lines of gender, sexualility, ability, race and class? As we dissect the various organs of discrimination, a new world, a new horizon, emerges. A world that may still be a utopia but that we can all aspire to. Trans-imaginaries are a powerful energy – they offer a unique form of self-description and thus the potential to open up a new narrative for the concept of gender.
