Unclean Jobs for Women and Girls: Stories by Alissa Nutting

4.0

I was loving this collection until the next to last story, the unfortunately named “She-Man”, starring the only trans character of the bunch. I was annoyed by some pretty basic ignorance throughout - estrogen doesn’t change your voice! - but by the end, it was pure garbage. Yet another story about a trans sex worker who, upon having her “deception”  discovered,  is beaten to death by her lover and white supremecists.  This was inexcusably lazy, in a collection that thrives on women being in otherworldly and surreal situations, that the only scenario a trans woman could possibly be in is murdered.
