Speaking at the University Of Winnipeg
February 28, 2012 · Posted in Buck Angel · Comment
Last week I went to the Canadian city of Winnipeg to speak at the University and show my new documentary Sexing The Transman. I have been working on this trip since last year because that is how long it takes to get all the correct papers and ok by the school. Most schools are like that, well specially with me because of my background in adult work.
But the people who really made it work Jess and Joey did such a great job of doing the fundraising that made it possible.
I met so many great people and had such a great time. I believe I made a good impact on so many people. Here is a photo gallery of the events and just some of my off time with the event coordinators. Thanks again Winnipeg! WOOF!
Yale Visit and Thanks!!
This is an email I just received on my YouTube account about my Yale visit in the next day.It’s because of emails like this that it makes me so happy that I am going to speak. I often remember when I first started my work the ugly hate mail from the trans man community. So I just see how things have changed so much.
I will be posting daily from Yale( if I make it as it looks like the snow is shutting the east coast down)on my blog with pics!! Ok read the cool email below.
WOOF!!

Dear Buck,
I am a transguy at Yale. I wanted to say thank you for performing at Yale and tell you how excited I am that you are going to be educating my fellow students. I am a big fan of your work and have showed many friends your website to explain what a transperson after testosterone (and lots of hard work) looks like. I cannot tell you how excited I was to learn that you were coming to Yale!!! I also wanted to let you know how very grateful I am that you are willing to be so open about your sexuality and status as a transman. Your example has helped me to slowly come out to my family and friends and has helped me to see how beautiful my body can one day become.
However, I am very sorry about the comments you recently received from a Yale. I found it particularly disappointing and frustrating that a fellow student would write such hurtful things. Thankfully, those sorts of people are very much the minority at Yale. I am writing in part to let you know that there are many wonderful and accepting people at Yale that have made my college experience a very loving and caring one. I adore my friends and the queer community at Yale and I hope that you have a good time when you visit. Sadly, I will not be able to attend your event because I am abroad at the Yale in London program. I wish I could be there in person Otherwise, I would have been in the front row cheering. I wish I could be there in person, but I made my friends promise to go and give me a play by play of the event. Good luck next week!!!
