Call Me Kimberly

What you can't face can't hurt you.

What awaits after the gauntlet of transition? For Kay, it's a completed list of achievements. Top surgery, good grades, a GSA presidency, a partner. Now he's exactly as average as he's wished. For Tahani, it's a hot femme's life: a gallant butch girlfriend, five missed alarms, and poly growing pains. No doctor can keep her from being the lesbian she was meant to be. 

Until the university insurance strips Tahani of access to hormones. On her girlfriend's suggestion, she comes to the GSA's president for help. 

What starts as a quest to right an injustice pulls on a thread of concealed wounds and desires. Why, despite all his successes, does Kay never feel satisfied? Is his relationship truly that loving, or just another item on his list? Is Tahani's girlfriend really the butch of her dreams? Which parts of herself would Tahani give up to preserve that dream? 

And how much of their lives and hearts have Kay and Tahani rewritten to fit what doctors demand of trans people? 

A second entry in the Ranked Competitive Breast Growth series and prequel to Estro Junkies, Call Me Kimberly is an unflinching exploration of trans lives, sexuality, and detransition in times of moral panic.
