Shannon's Queerest Space
Promoting Genderqueer, Transgender, Youth Rights, Social Justice, and Other Radicalness Since 1999
Welcome!
You have reached the website of Shannon E. Wyss -- radical genderqueer, almost-lifelong feminist, city-dweller, dog- and cat-lover, geek, freak, Gen X'er, and other things, too. Thanks for coming to visit my electronic "home". Below is an overview of how my site is laid out -- since those teeny links at the top of the page aren't very helpful in & of themselves.
Random Biographical Information
More about me and my politics than you might really care to know.
Gender(queer) 101
So what is this whole genderqueer thing? Click here to find out! You can read about my own identity and find a great list of genderqueer-type words.
Why I Care About (Queer) Youth
Or, why i hated high school and wanna' make social change.
Publications and Writings
Partly so anyone can see a list of what i've written, in case ze happens to be interested. And partly so that, if i ever need one of my own references and i'm not at home in front of my computer, i can actually find the information i need!
From Isolation to Justice
A great letter, which i wish i could say i wrote myself, on the current state of the LGBT movement.
Travelness
A couple brief journal excerpts -- and pictures -- from my trips to Haïti and Sénégal.
Obligatory List o' Cool Links
Stuff you might want to check out. Contains links in the following categories: Lesbian/Gay/Bi, Trans, Intersex, Genderqueer, Women's Studies, Feminist, Youth, Racial/Ethnic Justice, Peace, Satire/Political Commentary, Environmental & Conservation, and, of course, Miscellaneous.

Web-based political things to which i belong or that i support.

A note on the advertising found herein: Alas, the need for a free website means that i must have ads. I find living in a capitalist system problematic on many, many levels. So, needless to say, i make no endorsement of any money-making enterprise whose ads appear at the top of any of my webpages. In fact, i would most likely never buy whatever it is that's currently "playing" above -- either because it would be too expensive, completely unnecessary, covered in ridiculous amounts of packaging, or would come from a company with troubling labor, environmental, personnel, or other policies. You, too, should keep these things in mind in our advertising-saturated culture. Get media savvy! Get angry! Get to saving your money! As the t-shirt slogan goes, "Capitalism sucks!"
Please e-mail me with any comments, suggestions, or other feedback. You can reach me at hugdyke @ gmail.com.
Thanks again for stopping by!
