Louie and their cat (a.k.a. “Cat”) take you on a journey through the world of gender—without claiming to have it all figured out or knowing the perfect definition for this widely complex subject. Gender is tricky to understand because it’s a social construct intersecting with many other parts of our identity, including class, race, age, religion. For a long time, people thought of gender as binary: male\/female, pirate\/princess, sports\/shopping. Now, we’re starting to understand it’s not that simple. That’s what this book is about: figuring out what gender means, one human being at a time, and giving us new ways to let the world know who we are.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoy, girl, either\/or, neither\/nor, everything in between: gender is a spectrum, and it’s hard to know where you fit, especially when your position isn’t necessarily fixed—and the spectrum keeps expanding. That’s where \u003ci\u003eRethinking Gender\u003c\/i\u003e can help: it gives you a toolbox for empathy, understanding, and self-exploration. Louie’s journey includes a deep dive into the historical context of LGBTQIA+ rights activism and the evolution of gender discourse, politics, and laws—but it also explores these ideas through the diversity of expressions and experiences of people today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eRethinking Gender \u003c\/i\u003eLouie offers a real-world take on what it means to be yourself, see yourself, and see someone else for who they are, too.","brand":"The MIT Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42956872614143,"sku":"9780262047234","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780262047234_s600x595.jpg?v=1775588641","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780262047234","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
