Reviews for Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation

Gender Outlaws takes the word gender and does to it what each new generation does with its inheritance: take what was handed down, sample and remix the hits of yesterday, and then reinvent and reimagine itself into a new being that only occasionally looks like its parents. --Ivan E. Coyote, writer and performer Bornstein, Bergman, and their rogue gallery of contributors explore the human genderscape with wit and soul. Gender Outlaws is required reading for anyone who has a sex or a gender... especially if you already think you know everything you need to know about them. --Hanne Blank, author of Big Big Love, Unruly Appetites, and Virgin: The Untouched History Finally, a book that gathers together the voices of new generations of gender outlaws! Edited by two trans-legends, this book manages to be smart, sexy, and entertaining. Gender Outlaws continues older conversations, starts new and often transnational dialogues, and gives us new ways of thinking about and inhabiting trans bodies, politics, and identities. Don't just read this book, become it! --Jack Halberstam, author of The Queer Art of Failure
