recommended for: folks interested in discussions of sexuality and gender identity

Quite a stellar read. Not every essay knocked my socks off, but overall, the book was thought provoking and helped me to explore some of my own repressive/oppressive thoughts about sexuality and gender. I was most surprised by how much I resonated with the overall theme of the book, which in my opinion, is that when folks are pigeoned holed and labeled, even if that label is queer, it's repressive of an individual's dynamic nature.

Nophoto-u-25x33 Since I don't have time to read much more than journal articles and textbooks, it's so nice to live my reading life vicariously through you right now, Heather!
Love 'ya,
