Resumo

Menstruation has been historically known as a function of the female body that affects women. Trans and non‐binary people face this biological function as a potential social signal of gender/sex identity. This research involves virtual ethnographic content analysis of menstruation discourse written by or informed by trans and non‐binary people in addition to 19 interviews with trans and non‐binary participants. The research yields analysis within three gendered/sexed social spheres that trans and non‐binary bodies contest: (1) the gendering of menstrual products; (2) men's restrooms; and (3) health care. The findings depict the variety of strategies trans and non‐binary people employ when navigating and interpreting menstruation in relationship to their gender/sex identities.
