He/She/They: How We Talk About Gender and Why It Matters

ISBN: 0306831864    EAN: 9780306831867Publisher: Balance    US SRP: $21.99 US   Binding: PaperbackPub Date: November 12, 2024Bailar, Schuyler (Author) From a trans rights activist and athlete, an urgent guide that changes the conversation about gender identity. Anti-transgender legislation is being introduced in state governments around the United States in record-breaking numbers. Trans people are under attack in sports, healthcare, school curriculum, bathrooms, bars, and nearly every walk of life. He/She/They compassionately addresses fundamental topics, from why being transgender is not a choice and why pronouns are important, to more complex issues including how gender-affirming healthcare can be lifesaving. With a relatable narrative rooted in science, and history, Schuyler helps restore common sense and humanity to a discussion that continues to be divisively coopted and deceptively politicized. He/She/They is more than a book on allyship; it also speaks to trans folks directly, celebrating radical trans joy.    Additional Information    BISAC Categories:- Social Science | Gender Studies- Self-Help | Gender & Sexuality- Social Science | LGBTQ+ Studies | Transgender Studies
