Gender Outlaw On Men Women And The Rest Of Us

Description: I know I m not a man and I ve come to the conclusion that I m probably not a woman either. The trouble is we re living in a world that insists we be one or the other. With these words Kate Bornstein ushers readers on a funny fearless and wonderfully scenic journey across the terrains of gender and identity. With a new introduction by the author On one level Gender Outlaw details Bornstein's transformation from heterosexual male to lesbian woman from a one - time IBM salesperson to a playwright and performance artist. But this particular coming - of - age story is also a provocative investigation into our notions of male and female from a self - described nonbinary transfeminine diesel femme dyke who never stops questioning our cultural assumptions. Gender Outlaw was decades ahead of its time when it was first published in 1994. Now some twenty - odd years later this book stands as both a classic and a still - revolutionary work one that continues to push us gently but profoundly to the furthest borders of the gender frontier.
