Part 2 of 2. Interview w/a Conservative & Progressive Trans Man (Other Conversations, May 2022)

Interview with a heterosexual trans man in Florida. He is a business owner, a homeschooling parent, and is a conservative with a progressive worldview. In part 2, we mostly talk about his homeschooling successes and challenges and the concept of unschooling. It's a great example of how homeschooling can help students who are being ignored or underserved by public schools. We also talk about his relationship with his mom, her faith, and her acceptance of his transition.

Other Conversations is an independent, informal oral history project by Shane Brodie, a multi-issue activist and sculptor. This project is on hiatus as of Fall 2023 as I continue to slowly upload previous interviews, but it may continue later on in 2024 or thereafter. If you are interested in being interviewed sometime in the future, please email me (see below) and we can talk about that privately.

In this project, I've striven for thoughtful content from a variety of points of view. I also haven't allowed comments because I want to limit harassment of my interviewees. This means that my project is barely treading water in the tsunami of anti-trans content on social media. If you've found these interviews interesting, please "like" and share them.

In this project, I interviewed transgender, nonbinary, gender non-conformist, agendered, neutrois, and intersex people who are anarchist, independent, conservative, egalitarian, progressive, free speech and gun rights enthusiasts, rural, religious, atheist, voluntaryist, mutualist, apolitical, skeptical, constitutionalist, classic liberal, libertarian, small political party members, socialist, DSA, communist, radical, revolutionary, or have a mixture of right/left views etc.

If you want to contact Shane, please email him at [e-mail]

Thanks!
