Beyond male and female : the gender identity spectrum / by Walker, Anita R.,author.(CARDINAL)826961; Tindall, Justin,writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)823787;
Beyond Stereotypes -- Gender fluidity -- Words matter -- It's not new -- An ongoing conversation.Gender identity helps define who each of us is, but it's also complicated--especially for those who do not identify as male or female but as something more fluid. Beyond Male and Female: The Gender Identity Spectrum carefully explains terminology, the reality of living beyond traditional genders, and the real-life experiences of genderqueer people. Finding one's true self and living that truth openly are not always easy. But with the right tools, the path is easier. Understanding traditional male and female stereotypes helps genderqueer students and their allies to advocate and educate people about gender identities that are neither male nor female but infinitely more complex and beautiful. There's nothing new about people with gender fluid identities--history is full of examples. Today, however, people with non-binary genders are increasingly able to live openly and honestly as their true selves. This book points the way.
