Important Insight Into 20th Century Transgender Social History
5 stars
She had an amazing life and this book helped me as a teenager to contextualise my own gender dysphoria properly. I once lent it to cisgender friend who was incredibly snobby about her writing, I definitely took that personally. I would say this is a good book for trans girls and young trans femmes of any age to read, but also provides some fantastic historical insight into the lives of our trans elders. She deserves more recognition.
