This should be a mandatory read for everyone. It was such a good reminder on what can constitute a micro aggression, and just does such an excellent job breaking down all of the terminology surrouning transgender individuals and meets head on all the difficult questions and assumptions and anti trans rhetoric/myths.

 This is a book mainly for the allies or would-be allies of the trans community. As a trans person reading this book, I see where this would be a good resource for a cis person to read. Covering from the basics of trans 101 to intersecting identities and how that adds layers to the human(s) this book is the book I'd like to give curious cis folk when wanting to know what is in my pants. Even though I have stated that the reader target group seems to be the cis population, I also see where trans folk can learn to stand more ground in the constant rude and inappropriate questions and how to guide the conversation to be more productive when dealing with minority groups. Overall well done as a 101 guide for cis community understanding the trans community.
