Hi margot do you have a list you'd share of the Hugo and nebula women? This is so in my vein and I've been feeling the itch to read more sf again also I hope you enjoy the female man I thought it was a fun whirlwind

I'm expanding this to women and nonbinary authors, which was less of a concern when I was just doing pre-1980 books, but a few more these days.

Authors with an asterisk next to their name means they won the award for that year.

For the 50s-80s I actually checked every author, since a few (like Andre Norton) used pseudonyms. For the 90s on, I got lazy and mostly just assumed gender based on first name (I know, I know) and only checked ambiguous ones. May or may not be entirely accurate, and there might be a few I have or have not deleted that should be. But it's probably most of them.

  • Nonbinary authors I am aware of: Caitlín R. Kiernan, Annalee Newitz, Shelley Parker-Chan, and C.L. Polk. And there may be more! I admittedly was not being super thorough.
  • I removed Yoon Ha Lee, who is the only trans man I know of who's been nominated, but I do love his books so I want to give a shoutout here to the Machineries of Empire series anyway.
  • Charlie Jane Anders, Rachel Pollack, and Ryka Aoki are the trans woman I'm aware of on the list, though again, there may be more.

The second tab has all winners/nominees, including for a few other awards. (I did delete one entry for association with the Sad Puppies nonsense.)

Also if you have trouble finding any of the books, let me know and I can probably help! I've managed to track most of the older ones down. (I've had good luck with archive.org and libgen for the long out of print.)

Who is more likely to do the deed with their doppelganger?

Mirror Kira:

1. canonically would (but prime Kira isn't down to clown)

2. so in star trek there is a mirror universe with all the same characters from the regular universe but like mostly evil and bisexual (it was the 90's, I'm just happy to get more bi characters in general(there are also non-evil bisexuals in the series so I forgive the bad trope, also evil bisexuals are sexy and I'm weak)). anyway prime!kira ends up in the mirror universe accidentally and meets her mirrorverse counterpart who is an evil dictator. mirror!kira immediately starts flirting with prime!kira and is so horny and stupid about it, she wants to fuck herself so bad it makes her look stupid

anyway i think it's safe to say yeah she would fuck her clone

Cecil Palmer:

first of all he literally has a double wich counts as a clone. they are sworn enemies. they comfort each other. they have predator/prey thing going on. his double is incomprehensibly traumatised and turned into propaganda tool of evil corporation. his boyfriend was stick with his double for ten years.

(we are system and we have his double as a fictive and Kevin wants to say that they definitely fucked)
