TiM Grace Lavery, the Berkeley English prof. who wanted to burn transphobic books, seems to be delighted at the thought that a TiM could get a uterus implanted from a dead or living woman, only to abort the fetus that was presumably the point of the operation. (Judith Butler is also at Berkeley...)

I found before and after trans photos of the couple telling; they looked so much happier and healthier in the before photo.

Mallory's story arc made me sad. It reads like she lost herself in a toxic and controlling relationship. Of course she is the one who gets sexually and publicly degraded in the relationship, but I am sure they tell themselves their relationship is so progressive and subversive because, in their minds, it is the "woman" dominating the "man." Despite wanting to "avoid dwindling into mere heterosexuality," it sounds like their relationship is treading the well-worn tropes of the dominant and promiscuous man and the woman who serves as his submissive wife.

It sounds like she comes from a controlling environment with a very controlling father.
