Kitty Barber

I am a bio/logical female. I wear clothing that suits me, protects me from the elements, from the unwanted gaze of other people, and that I happen to enjoy wearing. I have hair on my head. It grows by itself, and I have it cut from time to time, so it doesn't obstruct my vision or get in my way. I do not follow the rules of the patriarchy and wear a mask--i.e. 'makeup'--on my face. I do not wear underwear that accentuates my breasts or is intended for the enjoyment of anyone but myself. I wear shoes that are comfortable and allow me to run if I need to. I support and attend the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival, I hope you will, too! I have had jobs in almost every field, from construction to music, from auto repair to prison guard. I 'do' whatever I can, and as much as I can. I am also a radical feminist; to be anything else in the patriarchy, as a bio/logical female, would be irrational. That's who I am. Or as much as I feel like revealing here. As a radical feminist, I reject the patriarchy's attempts to force me into a gender role, based on my sex. Therefore, I reject the concept of "transgenderism," as it only reinforces those gender roles, which are a sexist construct of what males and females are allowed to be. That's logic.
