Beyond Our Bodies

Shoshana is a queer trans Jewish academic and researcher in sexual and queer health. "I've always found myself on the periphery of peripheral groups: punks, queers, Jews... I'm always too A for B, too B for C etc. I've been very lucky to create my own communities and spaces with other queerdos and freax who exist in the same liminal ways that I do. These days I find my identity as a butch dyke to be the most prominent way that I connect to people, and the closest thing to a core description of who and what I am. Living in the 'margins' is challenging, but I'll take doggy-paddling through the world over wearing floaties and never learning to survive. » Shoshana Photo by Su Cassiano/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
