I was excited to read this series, but it really hasn't aged well. I know it came out in 2002, but I feel like even then, the slurs used were considered, well, slurs. It's also tough reading about Row v Wade and Israel v Palestine discourse in 2024. Don't know if I'll be able to keep reading, even though the plot really has me interested.

Moderate: Transphobia, Violence, Homophobia, Blood, and Racial slurs
Lots of slurs, including slurs against trans folks, lesbians, black folks, and use of the r-slur.reaja's review

Moderate: Gun violence, Transphobia, Pregnancy, and Genocide
Minor: Suicidal thoughts
The main theme revolves around the Y chromosome, so there is a lot of focus on gender.phoebereads's review
