Reviews

This is such a great book! It's a pretty thorough history of trans exclusion in both feminist circles and gay/lesbian spaces, but it's shared as memoir, a first-hand account told in Wilchins' delightfully sarcastic tone. A must-read for every feminist. Even if you think you know a lot about the history of feminism and trans rights, you will learn a lot reading this. (Note: If you're cis, please remember you shouldn't use the reclaimed slurs Wilchins uses in the book.)
