Going for a mujerisima vibe at work today (I don't know how to do the right accents on mobile).

@Impossible_PhD ¿Mujerísima?

If you’re on iOS, deep press the letter. You’ll get a few options. Select the letter you want.😊

Y si, tu mirada es muy bonita. 😊

@aparna Android. Does it work the same on Android? I'm terminally white, embarrassingly, but the term and philosophy was so glorious in A Short History of Trans Misogyny that I really want it to be A Thing.

@aparna Also, IIRC, there are two different accents on mujerisima.

Also, long press on Android just gets me 8. 😡

@Impossible_PhD Depending on the version, the same trick may just work on Android as well. If not, I usually switch to French Canadian keyboard, which would involve a few more steps. 😊

Will have to read up on the philosophy. I kind of understand the term from my A1 level Spanish, and I’ve heard mujerismo (“womanism”?) before. Just may have to add A Short History of Trans Misogyny to my reading list now!

@aparna Mujerisima translates (badly) as "maximal womanhood." It's a celebration of an overabundance of femininity, a centering of trans women and people for whom trans femininity are vital, as the most feminine, the most woman, because we fight for it.

@Impossible_PhD So it turns out my (American, top 20, but based in the South) university’s digital library does have a copy, but only as a 11 page sample. Would you believe it?!

I see the last chapter is titled Mujerísima (with a single accent on i). Found myself nodding my head reading the little sample here; let’s see if I can get a bigger edition from somewhere!

(Yeah, Gboard’s predictive text is terrible)

@aparna For some reason I was thinking both of the I's had accents, and in opposing directions. Teaches me to leave the book at home.

Anyway, thank you!
