Ada: A Journal of Gender, New Media, and Technology, No. 12. doi:10.13016/M2RB6W3852325-0496https://hdl.handle.net/1794/2677515 pagesIn this essay I combine a reading of The Left Hand of Darkness with autobiographical accounts of queer/trans reproduction and childrearing. Contrasting my own experiments in “50/50” parenting with the vision of care elaborated in the novel, I draw attention to the importance of caring labor to radical queer and trans politics more generally.enCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USArticle
