Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m so excited to start this study in June. It‘s my #2025nfbookchallenge. I always start the year strong with whatever challenge I set for myself. Then comes March… I‘ve been struggling to finish my nonfiction choices, but I‘m pretty sure that won‘t be the case here. I loved the documentary which brought out some excellent discussions. #readmorebooks #nonfiction #spirituallife

Assuming no 5 stars next week- but I‘ll let you know if there are.
I‘ve already ordered one off someone else‘s list that I hadn‘t seen before!

…transsexual bodies, identities, perspectives, and experiences are continuously required to be explained and inevitably remain open to interpretation. Ironic opening to cisgender privilege chapter given that Serrano constantly discusses nuances in language and terminology

I am having a hard time adding photos --like they go sideways when I don't want them to but don't when I try to lol. Anyway interesting discussion in Whipping Girl re the emphasis and sensationalistic focus on transitioning process. She brings up the classism of attractiveness and I wonder how this chapter would change today after the proliferation of cosmetic surgery, Ozympic etc.

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Misty, I feel so loved and spoiled 💕💕💕 Thank you so much for the book and goodies! I'm grateful for you 🥰

I found the sections on the impacts of fe/male hormones during the transition process very interesting. Overall I learned a lot from the author. Would like to read a similar book by a transgender man.

Just started this. Part of my Literati book club.

I had a free book credit from thriftbooks, so I used it to get this. You get what you (don‘t) pay for, other than 99 cents shipping — it‘s heavily underlined throughout 🤷🏻‍♀️. But I‘ll take it anyways!
