The Classification Board has this morning given Melbourne Queer Film Festival the go-ahead to screen Sexing the Transman.
“The trans community will no doubt be rapt to finally be able to view a sex-positive trans documentary among the safe and supportive environment of the MQFF — it’s the first public screening of its kind in Australia, and hopefully the first of many,” MQFF director Lisa Daniel said.
“Full credit goes to the Board for acknowledging the adult film festival-going community of Melbourne is mature enough to decide what they would like to view.”
Earlier this year the Classification Board refused exemption for two films in Sydney’s Mardi Gras Film Festival line-up, Community Action Centre and In Their Room: Berlin.
The board determined the films would have been granted an X classification had they been put through the classification process in Australia.
In Sexing The Transman the world’s first transman porn actor, Buck Angel, interviews other trans men about their bodies, transitions and sexual orientation.
INFO: There are still a limited number of tickets on sale for Sexing the Transman, which screens at 10.15pm on Friday, March 16 at ACMI. Details at www.mqff.com.au
Buck Angel Selected as Board Member by Woodhull Sexual Freedom Alliance
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Los Angeles, CA; March 12, 2012
Buck Angel and The Woodhull Sexual Freedom Alliance have joined forces to help move our world to a place where our fundamental human right to sexual freedom is fully realized. The mission of this organization meshes perfectly with Buck Angel’s message of being sexually comfortable in one’sown skin. Together they hope to advance an agenda that recognizes the wonderful diversity of sex, sexuality, and our rights to make informed, consensual choices in our lives.
Buck made history rising to prominence as the first female-to-male transsexual adult film star. More recently, he has focused on education, advocacy, and motivational speaking, reaching people from all across the globe and the spectrums of gender and sexuality through appearances at universities and numerous events.
As a leader in advocacy and activism for sexual freedom, rights and liberty, Ricci J. Levy the Executive Director of Woodhull says, “Buck’s long history of activism around sexuality and gender identity, coupled with his boundless energy and passion for sexual freedom will be enormous assets to Woodhull. Buck inspires people to think outside the box and I can’t wait to add his perspective and creativity to the work we’re doing to affirm sexual freedom as a fundamental human right. I’m absolutely delighted at the prospect of working with him from now on!”
One of Buck’s first activities in joining the board was to announce that he will be donating 5% from each sale of his newest sex education film, “Sexing The Transman XXX” to the organization during the entire month of April. http://sexingthetransman.com/

thank you for all the good work
Hi Buck,
I first of all want to thank you for all the good work that you do in the community, you’re awesome. I am a pansexual woman deeply in love with and married to a transguy and we are both excited to see your documentary. How is it being distributed? Are there any planned showings in the SF Bay Area? I feel like the info is probably posted somewhere (like maybe in front of my face) but I’m just not finding it.
Thanks and take care! Happy Halloween! :)
Hey T
Thank you so much. As of now I only have the XXX version released but working on the more “mainstream” now. I have so many damn good interviews that is is very hard to edit. But I just screened a special cut I did for the Copenhagen film festival and that went really well. So that was a great test. They loved it. Just keep watching my Facebook,Twitter and websites it will be announced there for sure Thanks for supporting my work I truly appreciate it.

Looking to cast POC for the next SEXING THE TRANSMAN XXX-Please apply so I can show more diversity. Here is the link. I am in NYC shooting Nov. 8-13.
Here is the thing for you guys/girls who think that I am just casting ALL white guys. Those are the guys who applied to be in the film!!! I would love to have some color in my films but I can’t force anyone to be in a porn now can I. Jesus Christ! First you bitch at me for not having any other transmen in my films so I finally have the ability to make one because enough transmen were willing to be filmed NOW I don’t have enough COLOR??? Come on now. I can only do so much. But I guess you guys could find fault in anything I do. So be it, doesn’t stop the people who appreciate what I do.
I recently got to review a movie that I’ve been creaming my knickers over for a while now and guess what? IT DIDN’T DISAPPOINT.
The movie is Sexing the Transman XXX; the latest brain child of XXX performer, educator and all round awesome,…
This is very interesting-Someone left this comment on my website BuckAngel.com-On my “Photo of The day”- “I don’t mean to be disrespectful but it seems odd to me you don’t change all the way? Why be 50/50? Why not be one or the other, regardless of life? It just seems almost contradictory to be male but enjoy ur female parts, just saying. Hypocritical?”-

The movie is Sexing the Transman XXX; the latest brain child of XXX performer, educator and all round awesome, buff as hell guy, Buck Angel.
Sexing the Transman XXX consists of 5 scenes, all featuring trans guys, four of which have the formula of an interview, followed by a solo masturbation scene with the last being a hardcore sex scene (featuring Uncle Buck himself).
It’s simple but genius. The menus are basic. The filming and editing is mostly one shot (all done by Buck himself). Buck interviews the performers from behind the subject but it has more of a ‘chat’ feeling, than an interview. I felt like I was listening in on awesome, personal conversations. It was very intimate.
I don’t normally do this with reviews but I’ve done a scene by scene for this film because there were a lot of things I wanted to direct quote and I also wanted to shine a light on each of the performers because they were all amazing.
