Masha Gessen at their apartment in Moscow in the early nineties \u00a9 Igor Stomakhin<\/p><\/div>\n

Masha Gessen is a bilingual writer, activist, and keen observer of\u2014actually, that isn\u2019t what this is about. Masha Gessen is hot<\/em>. \u201cI know,\u201d you\u2019re saying, \u201cI have eyes.\u201d No, but bear with me. Other people in this world are hot. Alexander Skarsg\u00e5rd is a tall drink of water, but I\u2019m not moved to write home about it. Masha Gessen\u2019s sex appeal is meaningful to me, and it\u2019s something that I\u2019ve been thinking about (when I\u2019m not thinking about dying from COVID<\/small>-19).<\/p>\n

My relationship to my own gender is fluid and has been since before there was the language to name it. A recent shift in theater culture has yielded a new beginning ritual for rehearsals: the moment we go in a circle and say our pronouns. I\u2019m always rendered silent by what feels to me the sheer impossibility of the task. \u201cShe\/ her\u201d is not entirely right. \u201cHe\/ him\u201d is not either. And \u201cthey\/ them\u201d hasn\u2019t yet felt like my answer, although I respect those who claim it (among them, Masha Gessen). Presented with options, unsure what feels less wrong, I say nothing. Some days, it feels like I don\u2019t have a gender at all; other days, that the English language is inherently so binary in its approach that I\u2019m using the wrong tool to solve the question. When I look at Masha Gessen, living a life of black turtlenecks, wide-ranging intellect, and gender-fluid beauty, their presence feels like sheer aesthetic triumph.<\/p>\n

A friend of mine has departed from pronoun-related language to describe their own gender. \u201cMy gender is orange,\u201d they said once. \u201cMy gender is chrome.\u201d When I tried making my own list I was surprised by how quickly I knew the answers. My gender is denim, my gender is The Doubtful Guest<\/em>, my gender is sunflower yellow. My gender is that photo of Masha Gessen lying on a couch, smoking languidly, giving you a look of intense expectation: Now what?<\/em><\/p>\n

This image of Masha Gessen exists in stark contrast to the hopeless banality of the gender binary, because Masha Gessen has both repurposed and transcended that binary. Now they\u2019re just getting on with being fabulous. In my imagined life of aspirational glamour, Masha is forever standing in front of floor-to-ceiling windows, giving you a look that says \u201c\u2026 I wrote a book about totalitarianism?\u201d whenever you want to ask silly questions about how they identify. Masha Gessen rocks a blazer like nobody else and has three kids and a partner whose facial symmetry is astonishing; they don\u2019t have time to explain they\/them pronouns.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m always filled with relief when I see queer people in their forties, fifties, and beyond, people who have survived the chaotic murk of their twenties and thirties and are forging lives on their own terms. I\u2019m filled with relief when I see anybody doing this, honestly, because I have so little optimism about my future, in particular, or our collective shared future, in general. To see these images is to be invited to a larger imagining than the one our culture most often provides. TV and film are still rife with stories in which queer people suffer rejection, violence, self-hatred, and the hatred of others. I am so hungry to witness queer health and success. And you know what? Cheeky queer glamour as well.<\/p>\n

These days, we\u2019re constantly being reminded that photographs aren\u2019t the whole story. Whatever fabulous quarantine life you\u2019re seeing on Instagram doesn\u2019t mean that everyone except for you has achieved happiness. (This is particularly helpful when I see a quarantine feed that, for example, appears to take place on a Greek island where calm and beauty reign.) Yes, pictures are nothing but symbols, but this potent symbolism is what I can\u2019t stop thinking about. How can you imagine a future for yourself until you see another person having it, someone who shares some deeply felt aspect of yourself? As Masha Gessen writes in their essay \u201cTo Be, or Not to Be\u201d: \u201cChoices we make about inhabiting new landscapes (or changed bodies) demand an imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve begun to realize that choosing a future is about choosing more and more daring acts of imagination. It is pure faith, maybe, that the right words will come last; that what arrives first will be fantasies and dreams, inchoate but powerful. But what is faith, if not instinct plus hope? My gender is the Six of Swords. My gender is fill-in-the-blank. My gender is Masha Gessen.<\/p>\n
