Written by a social worker, popular educator, and member of the
transgender community, this well-rounded resource combines an
accessible portrait of transgenderism with a rich history of
transgender life and its unique experiences of discrimination.
Chapters introduce transgenderism and its psychological, physical,
and social processes. They describe the coming out process and its
effect on family and friends, the relationship between sexual
orientation, and gender and the differences between transsexualism
and lesser-known types of transgenderism. The volume covers the
characteristics of Gender Identity Disorder/Gender Dysphoria and
the development of the transgender movement. Each chapter explains
how transgender individuals handle their gender identity, how
others view it within the context of non-transgender society, and
how the transitioning of genders is made possible. Featuring men
who become women, women who become men, and those who live in
between and beyond traditional classifications, this book is
written for students, professionals, friends, and family
members.
