What is a woman? That's a tricky question because it's almost never asked in good faith. But good faith I have, and for an answer I went through a century of feminist literature about it, passing by semiotics, french bow ties, and TG/TF teen movies to write a very personal reply about queer joy.
This video is dedicated in loving memory of Arin.
Really special thanks to Bad Dates, Lou, Gabi, Paula, Steffi, Raíssa, Bibs, Jamal and everyone else who has helped me with this one, but not only for that.
