Exploring the Unexpected Penis - with Amanda Kovattana

Amanda Kovattana is a biracial, tri-cultural writer who grew up in Bangkok, in a pre-industrialized Thailand before immigrating to California in 1968. She was born in England to an English mother and a Thai father and lived in England during their college years. As a gender non-conforming child, living in Thailand, she benefited from the “third gender” culture of her Thai heritage. Her coming of age in the San Francisco Bay Area, as a lesbian, introduced her to the gay community and the evolving gay liberation movement. Her skill set draws from her engineer father teaching her how to fix things, while her mother’s profession, as a child therapist and family counselor, gave her an understanding of child development and neurodivergent brain styles. She makes a living as a professional organizer specializing in the chronically disorganized and neurodivergent personalities. In this episode, we discuss her new book, The Unexpected Penis, which is lined in our liner notes.   Links: The Unexpected Penis: https://a.co/d/hHNyOaS Amanda’s Substack. https://amandakovattana.substack.com   ************* Support our work: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/GDAlliance?country.x=CA&locale.x=en_US   For more information: https://www.genderdysphoriaalliance.com
