The “Private” Photographs of Bolette Berg and Marie Høeg (ca. 1895–1903)

Excerpts from a dazzling image collection, discovered in a Norwegian barn in the 1980s, that experiments with the presentation of gender.

Biologist Rachel Louise Carson (1907-1964) began her career with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service but achieved fame and social influence with publication of such popular books as The Sea Around Us (1951) and Silent Spring (1962).

Rachel Carson is shown in her mature years, likely in the late 1950s or early 1960s. She appears calm, focused, and introspective. Her hair is neatly set, and she wears modest professional attire.

Hey all y'all need to stop using "guys" in mixed company.

- My trans girlfriend is not a guy.
- My cis girlfriend is not a guy.
- I'm not a guy (or a girl, but that's not relevant here).

Misgendering is misgendering—even if "everyone's doing it".

Patriarchy shouldn't be the default.

Top panels: a pink-haired girl dismisses "you guys" with a hand gesture.

Bottom panels: a pink-haired girl endorses "y'all" with a pointing gesture.
