Tomboy: A Graphic Memoir by Liz Prince

4.0

I thought this was a very honest, unflinching memoir, and though I'm already concerned about gender issues, it still made me think a lot about the gender roles foisted on us by society, particularly on girls. I'm glad this conversation is becoming more visible because it's long overdue. My hope is that the increased awareness and understanding of how restrictive gender roles are will make life become easier for people who are gender-nonconforming--with the side benefit that it would make life easier for the rest of us as well. In my view, the world will be a much better place once we start looking at one another as human beings rather than as prepackaged goods.
