What Members Thought

Holy crap, the intro essays are boring - and not particularly well-written. It's no wonder I never made it through this book the first time I tried. I am unimpressed with the idea that emerges in these essays that genderqueer folks have it harder than transexual folks. I dislike this theme equally in reverse, as it is divisive and pointless and doesn't get the trans community anywhere. We all struggle for different reasons, and I don't find it helpful to fight about who has a harder time.

Probably the best gender book I have found. (And I have scoured the HQ sections of multiple academic libraries!) I have to buy this at some point, because I keep finding new ideas in it.
