Now gender identity is on the throne. Sex survives as a cheap imitation of its former self: assigned at birth on a spectrum socially constructed and definitely not binary. Apparently quite a few of us fall outside the categories male and female . But gender identity is said to be universal we all have one. Humanity used to be cleaved into two sexes whereas now the crucial division depends on whether our gender identity aligns with our body. If it does we are cisgender; if it does not we are transgender. The dethroning of sex has meant the threat of execution for formerly noble words such as woman and man . In this provocative bold and humane book the philosopher Alex Byrne pushes back against the new gender revolution. Drawing on evidence from biology psychology anthropology and sexology Byrne exposes the flaws in the revolutionary manifesto. The book applies the tools of philosophy accessibly and with flair to gender sex transsexuality patriarchy our many identities and our true or authentic selves. The topics of Trouble with Gender are relevant to us all. This is a book for anyone who has wondered Is sex binary? Why are men and women different? What is a woman? or simply Where can I go to know more about these controversies? Revolutions devour their own children and the gender revolution is no exception. Trouble with Gender joins the forefront of the counter - revolution restoring sex to its rightful place at the centre of what it means to be human.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Trouble With Gender Sex Facts Gender Fictions\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Byrne Alex\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: John Wiley And Sons Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781509560011\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 320 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Gender Studies, Gender Groups","brand":"Byrne Alex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49617791942961,"sku":"IN-G-9781509560011","price":23.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781509560011.jpg?v=1724687699","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781509560011-trouble-with-gender-sex-facts-gender-fictions","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
