COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Great Book for all! submitted by daniellenmack on September 14, 2008, 2:00pm Don't be thrown off by the title. This is a great book for everyone to read. It is not a feminist book or a tranie book, but a truely insightful book into the world around us. defining womens strengths and mens strengths and how each one can be the best they can be. It was almost impossible to put down and I hate politics. Definatly a must read!
Great book for the science loving queer person submitted by svenetianer on August 28, 2022, 11:37pm Julia Serano has an amazing perspective on gender and the binary. If you are a bit of a black-and-white thinker (I'm looking at you STEM people) but also experience the beauty of the gender spectrum, this is a great read.
