Stories From The Intersection of Gender Identity and Geek Culture

Transgeek brings in a wonderful diversity of Trans voices and their experiences across tech culture, gaming, fantasy and sci-fi. Across actions like online forums, avatars, new readings of fantasy texts,  and inclusive hacking conventions we see Trans folk; who like all marginalised communities use their passions to dismantle and reconstruct systems that never imagined people like them existed. There is also the uphill struggle fighting for their rights in the macho tech workplace where Trans people are often invisibilised, bullied and intimidated. An illuminating, enriching watch about the intersection between gender identity and geek culture whether you’re a DnD aficionado or a complete muggle.
