À propos de cet audio

Named as one of 100 Best Non-Fiction Books of All Time by Ms. magazine.

Julia Serano shares her experiences and insights - both pre- and post-transition - to reveal the ways in which fear, suspicion, and dismissiveness toward femininity shape our societal attitudes toward trans women, as well as gender and sexuality as a whole.

Serano's well-honed arguments and pioneering advocacy stem from her ability to bridge the gap between the often-disparate biological and social perspectives on gender. In this provocative manifesto, she exposes how deep-rooted the cultural belief is that femininity is frivolous, weak, and passive.

In addition to debunking popular misconceptions about being transgender, Serano makes the case that today's feminists and transgender activists must work to embrace and empower femininity - in all of its wondrous forms.

Wonderful and nuanced perspective on being transgender and on the male to female perspective in particular. I didn’t tale it all in on the first listen but expect to revisit. Particularly helpful for me was the examination of the journey from cross dressing to fully transitioning.

Great collection of essays on the trans experience

Julia gives the best discourse on identifying as a trans woman I've discovered to date.

Thank you Serano!
