Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe
5.0
Some quotes I felt in my bones:
Pendulums of pages 120/1
“I want people to be confused about my gender at all times”(175)
All of 190
“After I didn’t speak up the first time I felt like I’d given up my right to say anything.”(210)
From parent: “why are you doing this to us?”(214)
“How do I look more… genderqueer”(226)
“Every time I fail to give my pronouns I feel like a coward… Next time. Next time I will come out.”(238/9)
“To my parents: though I have struggled with being your daughter… I am your child”(240)
Really all of it was great.
