In mainstream media, the erotic identities, sex lives, and
fantasies of transgender and genderqueer people are often
oversimplified, sensationalized, or invisible. Take Me There
is an erotica collection unlike any other that celebrates
the pleasure, heat, and diversity of transgender and
genderqueer sexualities. The power of seeing and being seen
is a central theme in the anthology; it’s not simply about
passing or not passing (an idea often explored with
transgender characters), but about being acknowledged and
desired in a sexual context.
The book takes you from San Francisco to Israel, from
heartache to lust, from stranger sex to a 10 year
anniversary, from ballet shoes to butt plug bondage tables,
from fumbling teenagers to leatherclad bears, from MTF and
FTM—and in between and beyond.
