Trans men and partners surveys

Via Mik at Coffee and Gender come these details of two online surveys, for trans men and their partners.

The lead researcher is author, educator, and policy consultant Jamison Green of Oakland, CA. He is interested in the sexual health and satisfaction of all transmen, whether or not they have had hormones or surgery, and in the experiences of their partners. He will use the data as raw material for a book, tentatively entitled “The FTM Guide to SEX,” plus academic presentations and journal articles to educate medical and therapeutic service providers about trans lives. Collaborating is urologist and surgeon Dr. Miroslav Djordjevic of Serbia. Dr. Djordjevic is interested in post-operative quality of life for all transmen who have had genital reconstruction. Dr. Djordjevic and Mr. Green plan to make professional conference presentations together and to co-author a journal article using the data collected here.
