She did a BA and MA at the University of Alberta, and a PhD at York University, Toronto. He transitioned to male in 2002. After teaching at the University of Victoria, he returned to York, where he is now Associate Professor at in sexuality and gender studies, in the School of Women’s Studies.
He is an out trans man. He is also vice-President of the the Canadian Lesbian and Gay Studies Association.
In a spirit of incoherence he identifies as a boy, retains female signifiers on identification, used ‘Bobby’ rather than a grown-up version, dates lesbians and works against white supremacy and capitalism.
He is working on FTM porn, and is suing the government for insisting on only M or F on passports.
