Tomboy: The Surprising History and Future of Girls Who Dare to Be Different by Lisa Selin Davis

DID NOT FINISH

---

DNF after multiple bouts of frustration with her '... but what about the (cishet) girls?' when talking with a trans expert who said tomboys still exist in today's media except that gender is no longer considered binary and some of these tomboy characters end up being trans or gender non conforming. She did feature interviews with trans people who were former tomboys so I thought I'd stick with it but the 'we need more tomboys that conform to my nostalgia' wore me down.
