SUMMARY:Virtual Reading: How Do I Sexy? Mx. Nillin Lore in conversation with Matsui de Roo
DESCRIPTION:Cross & Crows Books welcomes author Mx. Nillin Lore and Matsui de Roo for a virtual reading and discussion of Nillin’s first book\, How Do I Sexy? \nABOUT HOW DO I SEXY?\nWhat even is “sexy\,” and how do you do it? A tough question for trans and nonbinary queers struggling to find their sexual selves in a landscape rife with misogynistic\, transphobic and homophobic ideals and expectations.\nIn How Do I Sexy? Mx. Nillin Lore provides affirming and helpful direction based on over a decade of their own personal and professional experience as an educator\, advocate\, support worker and award-winning sex blogger. You’re invited to do some deep introspection\, find a look that feels right and gain insight on sexiness from fellow trans and nonbinary queers. You’ll also find valuable tips on navigating dating sites\, finding community\, managing rejection with grace and engaging in sexual relationships. Principled and compassionate\, Mx. Nillin Lore will help you figure out who you want to be\, who you want to be with and how to make it happen—both in the streets and between the sheets. \nABOUT MX.
