Almost there; just some copy changes left. 7-day hold to. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 23:05, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Lead

 * Emphasizing sex acts possible with flaccid penises or not involving penises at all, it coined the term "muffing" to refer to stimulation of the inguinal canal, and popularized that act. The last comma should be removed; there's no subject there. User:Sammi Brie/Commas in sentences (CinS)

Background

 * She intended to publish a zine featuring submissions from others, but found the material insufficient, and so chose to make the zine a solo effort and number it "#0" to leave room for a "#1" featuring others' contributions. This has a CinS error best fixed by minor rewording: She intended to publish a zine featuring submissions from others but found the material insufficient, so she chose to make the zine a solo effort and number it "#0" to leave room for a "#1" featuring others' contributions.
 * Fair point, but the proposed new wording's isn't really my writing style, so I went with a semicolon instead. Work for you? --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 22:34, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
 * In an interview with Kennedy Nadler of Autostraddle in 2013, she wrote that she "wanted to speak to aspects of our sexuality that are almost never given any attention in media whatsoever: those of us who enjoy sex with other women, trans and otherwise, and some of the difficulties (as well as unique pleasures) of trans women having sex with cis women." Since you're quoting only part of the sentence, per MOS:INOROUT, the end should have the quote before period.

Content

 * She rejected attempts to impute a deeper meaning to trans people's genitals, writing, "what I have between my legs is not a metaphor or an analogy but something new and wonderful", and "My body is a woman's body and part of it is my penis, a woman's penis." The last comma after the second quotation is not necessary (CinS)

Reception and impact

 * Muffing in particular has drawn attention in popular-culture sources including Playboy, Broadly, Autostraddle, and The Daily Dot, and This looks like a CinS issue, but it really should be a completed appositive. Add a comma after "including"
 * Again went with a semicolon instead. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 22:34, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Fielding's Trans Sex describes a 'mystification' process of seeing past the "habitual reality" of one's body, and identifies Remove the comma toward the end (CinS)
 * -- Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 23:14, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Valens wrote by tweet that Fucking Trans Women had "changed the landscape of trans and queer sexuality" and "saved countless trans people and opened their eyes to what their bodies can do and be", and credited her career to Bellwether. I'd do ", crediting" instead of ", and credited" to fix this CinS issue.
 * , also reärranged and simplified refs. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she&#124;they&#124;xe) 23:14, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
