About

A letter from the Gender Grip Founder

Feeling comfortable in our own bodies is something everyone deserves. But too often, certain groups—like those struggling financially, transgender individuals, plus-size folks, and people of color—are left out of the picture by both businesses and society. That's where Gender Grip comes in.


Our recent photoshoot breaks stereotypes wide open. We deliberately cast people against type: fat individuals as jocks, trans femmes as cheerleaders, and so on. It's all about showing the real diversity of bodies and challenging what's considered "normal".


Gender Grip isn't just a product—it's a way to support The Queer Trans Project, an initiative I deeply believe in as Deputy Director. LGBTQIA+ nonprofits like ours have a tough time getting funding. Shockingly, a recent report found they got only 0.13 percent of overall philanthropic support from 2015 to 2019. So, Gender Grip isn't just about selling tape—it's about creating our own income to keep our programs going, especially our "Build-A-Queer Kits". Every purchase of Gender Grip directly helps The Queer Trans Project. 


Huge thanks to Ebony McKnight of Ebony McKnight Visuals in Jacksonville, FL, whose amazing talent made our vision come alive. And big shoutout to Kendall Moore, founder of Project Spot, for her great ideas and hard work.


Lastly, I want to give a special thanks to Cielo Sunsarae, the founder of The Queer Trans Project, whose leadership keeps me moving forward in our fight for trans rights.


With love, Alexis G. Williams (She/Her)
