Transcending Anatomy is a guide to help partners of trans people navigate bodies and sex. It starts by unpacking some common assumptions, then goes through strategies for understanding your partner’s body, what language to use, and what feels good for them. It also also talks about getting comfortable with physical contact, dealing with dysphoria, and creative ways to work within limits. It won’t tell you what to say and do during sex, or what your partner wants – instead, think of this as a starting point for challenging your own assumptions and talking about this stuff.
