Full disclosure: You shouldn’t be reading this. I am a straight white male. I actually had to look up “cis,” but I’m pretty sure that applies to me as well. I’ve never directly asked my parents if I was born a dude, and I’ve never seen a picture of my birth-penis, but I’m going to go ahead and assume I’ve always been a male.This week, some writer I’ve never heard of named K.T. Bradford encouraged everyone to stop reading white, straight, cis male authors for a full year.
