The Museum of Transology (MoT) is the UK’s most significant collection of objects representing trans, non-binary and intersex people’s lives. 

Never again will historians be able to say that you can’t call trans people ‘trans’ in the past. Never again will trans, non-binary and intersex people be hard to find in history. And never again will the records of our lives be written by the media that spectacularise us, the legal systems that criminalise and the psychiatrists who pathologise us. 

With our own museum we will write ourselves back into history, on our own terms, in our own words. 

Collectively, we will halt the erasure of transcestry.

Each object donated to the Museum of Transology has a brown swing tag attached to it, with a hand written message explaining its significance to the  owner. This means both the story and the object are archived as two parts of a whole, never to be erased or overwritten. This is a deliberate strategy to ensure the experiences surrounding trans, non-binary, and intersex people’s everyday lives are recorded in our own words, forever.

The collection currently consists of 213 files, 280 artefacts, 155 brown paper tags and 435 Jpgs.  

And yes, we are still collecting.
