Awesome first intro to gender studies! Easy to digest, and even though it's not very impressive literarily, it still taught me a ton. Also nice to keep on your shelf, and I want to collect the other graphic guides in this series :)

I wish it was more of personal experiences of gender Identity it's a great information book, I'm not into a lot of information books.

I picked up this book because I absolutely love Queer: A Graphic History. After reading this, I'm excited to read more if their Graphic Guides.

There was definitely more text on the page than in Q:AGH, but this subject has a lot more nuances and contradictions than what is covered in Q:AGH, so it's understandable.

I was surprised at how much I didn't know before reading this. For example, I had never heard of polygender before, but it makes sense that it exists. I'm grateful for this guide providing me some much needed education.

I've always wanted to know more in terms of gender studies, the exploration of the gender binary, and the recent representation we have seen of non-binary or gender nonconforming people and I was so glad in what I got with this book as it lays it all out in simple and graphic terms for even a layman such as much to understand. 5/5 stars!
