Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men by Caroline Criado Pérez

Did not finish book. Stopped at 12%.
The topic that this book covers interests me deeply, but from the first few pages alone, it made me uncomfortable to see so many phrasings that seemed to exclude any trans and nonbinary people. Sex and body were being lumped together despite the author's differentiation in the introduction, and sections were awkwardly phrased in a way that implied there are only two sexes or only two genders, which is incorrect. I did some brief research online and found out that this is not an isolated incident and continues both throughout the book and in the author's other works. I'm very disappointed.
