This book is fantastic! This is actually my second time reading the book, as we selected it for book club after I'd read it previously. I listened to the audiobook on my first read, which was very well done. And I read the paperback this time around for a slightly different experience.
In He/She/They, Bailar gives us both a highly personal look into his life as a trans collegiate athlete as well as a detailed introduction to how to be a good ally to the trans community. He blends memoir with trans history and education to cover a variety of topics relevant to the trans experience. As a cishet woman, this book gave me better insight into the experience of trans people, provided me with tools to be a better ally, and will help me speak more intelligently against anti-trans legislation. If I ever have an opportunity to hear him speak in person, I would definitely take it!
