ljrinaldi 's review for:

Seeing Gender: An Illustrated Guide to Identity and Expression by Iris Gottlieb

4.0

---

Cuttlefish are a bit on the gender fluid side, at least when trying to trick female cuttlefish to mate with them. They will appear as female, one one side, to fool the males to let their guard down. They will appear male, on one side, to trick females.

This book goes through a lot of the terms people are using for being gender neutral, as well as all asepcts of gender, sexuality, and all parts in between.

There are sections on sexism, and straight white males not listening.




And there is also a part where the author shows why she knows about a lot of the things, and how tis as affected her life. She discusses her anorexia, and her top surgery.

Well thought out, a huge asset for any library.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
