«Hay cuerpos que están inventando otras formas de vida».Paul B. PreciadoEn este libro una treintena de autorxs narran cómo viven su identidad fuera de los rígidos límites de lo binario, hombre y mujer, cis o trans. Les coordinadores de este libro parecen haber prendido un fuego alrededor del que se sientan personas de muy diversos orígenes —desde Borneo a Reino Unido, pasando por Vietnam o Malta— para hablarnos de su infancia, su adolescencia, la manera que tienen de vivir el género y la neurodivergencia o el embarazo. Para contarnos también de qué se desprendieron para ser más libres y más felices, para hablar de sus familias y pronombres elegidos. Estas historias son un lugar donde mirar cómo será el futuro que deseamos: un futuro donde no existe una manera correcta o incorrecta de vivir el género.
