Over the last decade, studies of trans people and the recognition of gender plurality has grown. However, gender identities outside of the binary of male/female have received little specific sociological attention.
This timely book offers a focused sociological study of non-binary trans people, examining how they are involved with and integrated into queer communities.
Exposing important nuances, the findings of this groundbreaking research marks an important contribution for the bigger field of gender studies, community organisation, LGBTQ scholarship and medical policy.
