The photo is a 1974 photo of Leslie Feinberg, from the FBI file on hir. I've written a piece on my interpretation of Transgender Warriors and Trans Liberation, but I don't think it's quite polished enough, so I'll post it later. Instead, I'll go over hir FBI file: https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/dc-metro/rg-065/6282555/Batch0010/6282555_100-HQ-480756.PDF.
The FBI thought Feinberg could be violating the Communist Control Act, advocating the overthrow of the government, and engaging in rebellion. Needless to say, a hero to all of us. Feinberg was a member of the Workers World Party (the party still exists, but more notably PSL split from it), which apparently wasn't openly advocating for the overthrow of the U.S, they just think it's inevitable.
My favorite line? "captioned subject is believed to be a white female, who became male through some kind of sex change operation, and is possibly homosexual". Some interesting language choice, and it's an interesting snapshot into the evolution of Leslie's identity.
The FBI found Leslie's place of birth and birthdate from public school records. It's a bit of an interesting look into all of the many places the FBI can get their information, along with how information like that was so much more patchwork before the digital age.
"Interview of subject is not being recommended because of the questionable nature of his sexuality". Hmm, interesting.
It's interesting how their investigation spanned multiple cities, from Kansas City to NYC to Bufffalo to Boston. It probably involved quite a few officers, though I'm sure it wasn't the main focus for all of them.
There's some interesting mention about changes in Leslie's gender identity. Born a girl, for a time wearing a beard and mustache, then going back to "she". I'm sure we all know, Feinberg's gender didn't stop evolving there.
"Subject reportedly contributes all extra money to WWP", Leslie definitely was dedicated to the cause. Leslie doesn't attend NYC WWP meetings, but the FBI doesn't mention why.
The FBI isn't immune to typoes, Leslie did some "criminal terspass" that garnered some attention.They wasted some time checking if Leslie was in Boston, but verified where Leslie in NYC lived by pretending to be a part of the Voter Registration Commission.
There's a whole 43 pages of documents, all just from 1974-75. There's plenty of interesting tidbits in there, so maybe check it out.

So, I think the folks here like more toned-down looks. I put together a few more outfits
outfits
This second one is something I'd wear irl. Except the hat. I'm not into hats, but I included one for @GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net
I think that I am not part of folks. I like my fashion over-the-top.
#2 is so fun, I'd wear that irl too.
That's why you're so real.
I put together a few khizuo fits
fits
This one I tried to do punk + hanfu
But I don't think I have enough punk or hanfu pieces, so I think it's pretty meh
Based on your fashion posting, I feel like this one has your energy
Both of them rock, but I think I'm partial to #2. I actually have been wanting to put together some punk hanfu outfits, since I have a hanfu set in my parents' house that was my prom dress. I have a look that I've sketched out but has not come to fruition yet. Also the skirt in #2 reminds me of a skirt that I sewed that is also plaid with suspender straps, only my skirt is blue and green and shorter in length. But still, #2 is an outfit that I may recreate in real life, I can't believe I never thought to wear that skirt with fishnets and a black sweater before.
I knew it
It's a leather jacket
That sounds legit!
You know my taste
Aah I have a pleather jacket that I'm customizing, but I left it at my parent's house! Maybe the outfit will have to wait until I return for break.
And yeah! Wearing hanfu to prom was a blast.
The first one is really cute. What is this by the way?
A mobile game, Shining Nikki.
It's super predatory and a skinner box lol, but if you have self control, it has a lot of fun fashion
Both look nice, Ash has a pair of boots like the bottom but not fully laced, they have little buckles and are same colour tho c:
God those sound nice. I would like
Yeah she always gets compliments when she wears them, if you find a pair snag em
Mine are THIGH-high
I fogor
They're both great, as always, but I love that first one, especially. I'm a sucker for jeans right now 😅
The first one was custom built to stimulate the hexbear trans mind
Problem?
Yes it's impractical!! I will freeze to death!! Very silly
Fashion isn't bound by practicality
What if it's cold out
this is bullshit...
But... it's a sweater? If it's warm enough for bare shoulders you'll surely sweat...
Imagine, if you would, a nice cool Autumn day. You feel the cool nip on your shoulders. You are comforted by the soft sleeves, blanket-like
I'm simultaneously sweaty and cold though, I have zero tolerance for any extreme temperature on account of being a loser
Also my shoulders are for my wife smh!!
It sounds appealing but I'd rather just be warm...
That's literally what happened when I saw that, pure neuron activation.
1# would be really great with....a hat, and maybe a kufiya
I love 2# i could never pull of that hat but she's doing a pretty good job 
What hat would you even wear with that outfit haha
there's always a hat
maybe something like this
or this
if you're feeling really zesty maybe this
and then one of these to cover those shoulders it's autumn it cold
The black one would probably work. I work with a lady who wears those all the time!
I still wouldn't wear it tho
You and Ash are really hung up on the shoulders
the black one works with the pants! they're almost the same colour, thus making symmetry
Not wearing hats is also cool, I mean someone has to be wrong
Bare shoulders are fine, but it's a SWEATER, it's supposed to be warm! Girl needs a scarf!
