FTW is a zine by trans women, about the sex lives of trans women. It is an educational and instructional tool as much as it is a creative exploration of how we have sex.

Dear Mira, I came across your wonderful zine Fucking trans women, it is just awesome and such an important resource! Many trans women I know struggle with their pre op sexuality, so: thank you for putting this together!
I am a trans activist based in Germany and I would love to make this available to German Trans women. Would you be interested in a cooperation? I would be willing to translate it for free.
Love to hear from you on this!

I… wait, this is only the first forty pages of an 80 page zine. Is there a part two someone under another heading?

This is so good! I learnt a lot from it and the info is framed in a very fun and sexy manner!
yay! imma postop now, but thanks!
seriously tho, not knowing how to find or ask for what was good for me was extremely damaging for my partners and my wellbeing. eventually i gave up, then finally i found an image on tumblr by amy dentata (what a name!) that showed a simple frig technique, and suddenly the reality of my sexual struggles was overwhelming!
so this guide really kicks home what i had to guess for myself about tucking and riding, and finally explains inguinal canals. i will have to hunt for a version that shows more pages, this file only reaches page 40 (numbered as 36 in the mag) in my viewer.
Y’all I neeeed the second half of this zine, is it posted anywhere?

Thanks so much XD
i’ve been noticing odd little gaps in the text, where it looks like someone whited it out with a marker — what’s up with that? should i look around for an uncensored version?
other than that, incredible work, really enjoying it 🙂
TW for rape on page 59
What an amazing, empowering read. Sex has been difficult and dysphasia inducing for a while but this is a game changer. Thanks Mira, rest in peace you beautiful person x
