Wow. This is a life-changing, empathetic and powerful work of political journalism. Faye writes with clarity, conviction and compassion to put forward a multi-faceted and wholistic argument for trans liberation. A must read for anyone who calls themselves a feminist, who believes in equality or who wants to learn more about the institution of gender. I will be recommending this work to everyone who'll listen!
An exhilarating critical read. This book is masterful and necessary. It's importance really cannot be understated. Buy it for your Grandma, buy it for your neighbor. I can't even begin to list just how much I learned. How angry it made me. How ashamed it made me in realizing my own shortcomings and ignorance as a trans ally. How much I didn't see or even think to see. I took my time with this one, reading multiple chapters several times just wanting to sink in as much of Faye's writing and arguments as I could.

I learnt a lot from this and am horrified on behalf of Trans people everywhere. We must do better.

I still think about this book a year after reading it. I have so many highlighted passages. It’s an important book for anyone looking to understand more about the lives of trans people.
Yes. This book should be mandatory reading for, well, most people really. Loaded with well researched stuff, and plenty of academic theory, this is a clever book written in an accessible way.
