Originating in Craigslist personals to indicate a trans person
seeking another trans person, the term "t4t" has come to describe
not only circuits of desire and attraction but also practices of
trans solidarity and mutual aid. Contributors to this issue
investigate the multiple meanings associated with t4t, considering
both its potential and its shortcomings. They explore forms of
Black trans kinship, consider the possibilities and limits of trans
crowdfunding, theorize transmasculine pornography as a site of
identity formation, and critique t4t spaces that allow for abuse or
exploitation. Because t4t names a type of separatism, it carries
risks such as identity policing, the prioritization of one aspect
of identity over others, and difficulty engaging in strategic
coalition. And yet, in a world that remains hostile to trans forms
of life, t4t also circulates as a promising practice of love,
repair, and healing. Contributors. Cassius Adair, Aren Aizura,
