Right off, while I acknowledge this label is challenging to some in the community, it does fit with my pronouns. The first time I encountered a label was like most of us, the day I was born. And it is in this that I found what I wanted to talk about. Through watching these I began to feel some of the old labels I had given myself trying to claw their way to the surface. Some were poignant, some were funny, and some made you want to cry. I found the Outrageous Oral videos on Youtube and watched several. Unsure of the direction I wanted to take with this I did what any good librarian should. But having basically been given cart blanch to talk about whatever I wanted dampened that fire for a bit. So, when I was initially asked to speak here, I was fired up, and I still am. Before I begin I would like to take a moment to thank the Dallas Way, the Pride Alliance, and the UNT Libraries for having us.
