Description

"An invaluable tool for both new and seasoned allies...clear and essential" information for anybody interested in learning more about navigating gender diversity in today's homes, communities, and businesses (Library Journal, starred rating). If they ever existed at all, the days of male and female, boy and girl, blue and pink, are long gone. The discussion of gender is now one that spans the globe and is ever-changing. Transgender men and women are publicly living their lives as men or women now more than ever before, and many of them are coming out as neither men nor women, choosing to live outside of the binary. Gender is evolving, and this evolution is accelerating. When it comes to gender diversity, we all want to act and say the correct things. Whether it's at a job interview, at parent/teacher night, and around the table at family dinners. But where do we begin? From the differences among gender identity, gender expression, and sex, to the use of gender-neutral pronouns like singular they/them, to thinking about your own participation in gender, Gender: Your Guide serves as ?a warm, inviting guide to a complicated area? (The Globe and Mail, Toronto). Professor and gender diversity advocate Lee Airton, PhD, explains how gender works in everyday life; how to use accurate terminology to refer to transgender, non-binary, and/or gender non-conforming individuals; and how to ask when you aren?t sure what to do or say. It provides the information you need to talk confidently and compassionately about gender diversity, whether simply having a conversation or going to bat as an advocate. Just like gender itself, being gender-friendly is a process for all of us. As revolutionary a resource as Our Bodies, Ourselves, Gender: Your Guide is ?greatly needed?an impactful tool for creating a world more supportive of people of all genders? (INTO! Magazine).
