Against the Grain

How many intersections can you cram in one feminist?

Customer service: is run by John and Stacy

About the Author

Siobhan [“shiv-awn”] is a freelance investigative journalist primarily covering law and abuses of authority, but her blag might be about a myriad of other things: Labour organising/activism, sexual ethics and polyamory or BDSM, sex-positivity, non-hierarchal modes of governing, trans-anarcho-feminism, and cats stuck in Tupperware.

 

Siobhan’s meatspace profile includes presentations at Edmonton’s BECA conference and regular appearances for the Alberta Sex Positive Education Community Centre. Her published work can also be found at VICE, the Edmonton Quotient, Shadowproof and The Establishment.

 

Decreasing world suck is the primary goal. Side effects may include bruising, gibbering, high fever, cracked desks, or cracked heads. Siobhan is not for everyone, consult your doctor before use.

 

She has a Twitter, if that’s your kink.
