That is, many people believe that sex exists while things like race do not. At any rate, looking at the treatment of transgender people today, the fact htaht they are still being persecuted makes it quite plausible that transgender persecution was closely knitted to the witch craze in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuroes. The witch craze can be told about in a way to empower certain people like women. The witch craze can also be constructed to give women and transgender people a place in history. Likewise, it can be told from a more scholarly view, which would get into the psychoanalytic idea of the anti-housewife.
All accounts reflect upon one another.
I think we should let the witches tell their own stories. I think we should listen to them and tell our own. I also think we should make up big lies. All of these challenge oppression in different places and at different levels. The only thing I think is necessary in order for the storytelling to be effective, is for people to listen to the stories as well as tell them.
