 \n							\n								\n									\n										\n											This presentation is part of an on-going study. It preliminarily
  interrogates the ironic disregard among transgender scholars\, Austronesi
 an linguists\, and Asianists over the striking linguistic and cultural aff
 inities between the Philippine binabae and her parallels\, such as Samoan 
 fa‘afafine\, in the Pacific. I argue that the Philippine archival material
 s on binabae can potentially bridge transgender embodiments in Austronesia
 n-speaking communities\, not only within Southeast Asia\, but more so with
  the rest of Asia. That is\, despite their cultural incongruities\, the bi
 nabae intimates a yet under-examined connection between the oft-separated 
 Asian and Pacific trans-ness\; thus\, emphasizing their potentially “share
 d history.” Divided into three parts\, the first two sections focus on the
  Philippine archive and Austronesian linguistic data\; particularly intere
 sting is the yet-unexamined archival finding\, containing a seemly acciden
 tal Catholic imprimatur defining binabae as “turned into woman by Jesus.” 
 Ultimately\, the presentation addresses how Asian transgenders and queers 
 both parallel with and differ from – but in either way enrich – the binaba
 e and the fa‘afafine et al. of the Pacific\n										\n									\n								\n							\n						\n					\n				\n			\n		\n	\n\n
