"Whenever I hear someone who has not had a transsexual experience say that gender is just a construct or merely a performance, it always reminds me of that Stephen Colbert gag where he insists that he doesn't see race. It's easy to fictionalize an issue when you are not fully in touch with all of the ways in which you are privileged by it." -- Julia Serano, Excluded: Making Feminist and Queer Movements More Inclusive (Seal Press, 2013) [ excerpted here]
