"This updated edition of Bornstein's formative My Gender Workbook (1997) provides an invigorating introduction to contemporary theory around gender, sexuality, and power. The original is a classic of modern transgender theory and literature and, alongside Bornstein's other work, has influenced an entire generation of trans writers and artists. This revised and expanded edition extends that legacy, offering an accessible foundation for examining gender in the reader's life and in the broader culture while arguing for the dismantling of all forms of oppression. For fans of the original, Bornstein's new material merits a fresh read..."--Publishers Weekly, starred review Cultural theorists have written loads of smart but difficult-to-fathom texts on gender theory, but most fail to provide a hands-on, accessible guide for those trying to sort out their own sexual identities. In My Gender Workbook, transgender activist Kate Bornstein brings theory down to Earth and provides a practical approach to living with or without a gender.Bornstein starts from the premise that there are not just two genders performed in today's world, but countless genders lumped under the two-gender framework. Using a unique, deceptively simple and always entertaining workbook format, complete with quizzes, exercises, and puzzles, Bornstein gently but firmly guides readers toward discovering their own unique gender identity.Since its first publication in 1997, My Gender Workbook has been challenging, encouraging, questioning, and helping those trying to figure out how to become a "real man," a "real woman," or "something else entirely." In this exciting new edition of her classic text, Bornstein re-examines gender in light of issues like race, class, sexuality, and language. With new quizzes, new puzzles, new exercises, and plenty of Kate's playful and provocative style, My New Gender Workbook promises to help a new generation create their own unique place on the gender spectrum.

Gender Outlaw is the work of a woman who has been through some changes--a former heterosexual male, a one-time Scientologist and IBM salesperson, now a lesbian woman writer and actress who makes regular rounds on the TV (so to speak) talk shows. In her book, Bornstein covers the "mechanics" of her surgery, everything you've always wanted to know about gender (but were too confused to ask) addresses the place and politics of the transgendered and intterogates the questions of those who give the subject little thought, creating questions of her own.

In the 15 years since the release of Gender Outlaw, Kate Bornstein's ground-breaking challenge to gender ideology, transgender narratives have made their way from the margins to the mainstream and back again. Today's transgenders and other sex/gender radicals are writing a drastically new world into being. In Gender Outlaws, Bornstein, together with writer, raconteur, and theatre artist S. Bear Bergman, collects and contextualizes the work of this generation's trans and genderqueer forward thinkers , new voices from the stage, on the streets, in the workplace, in the bedroom, and on the pages and websites of the world's most respected mainstream news sources. Gender Outlaws includes essays, commentary, comic art, and conversations from a diverse group of trans-spectrum people who live and believe in barrier-breaking lives.

Vad gör du om hjälpen du får från kompisar, föräldrar eller terapeuter inte har någon effekt, utan du fortfarande mår lika dåligt? Då kan det vara dags att försöka med några mindre accepterade metoder. Sådana som du får tips om i den här boken. Författaren Kate Bornstein har haft många skäl att ta livet av sig, men har valt att fortsätta leva, eftersom hon kommit på en massa saker man kan göra i stället. Det är dessa alternativ hon samlat i Hej grymma värld. Om de fungerade på henne, så kanske de fungerar på dig? "Jag har skrivit den här boken för att hjälpa dig att fortsätta leva eftersom jag tycker att världen behöver fler snälla människor, vilka de än är. Världen blir friskare tack vare sina utbölingar, utstötta, knäppskallar, queera och syndare. Jag passar själv in i alla dessa kategorier, så det spelar ingen roll för mig om du gör det eller inte. Kanske är det här en hemsk tid för dig, och i så fall så hoppas jag att jag kan hjälpa dig att fatta nytt mod." Kate Bornstein SAGT OM BOKEN "Kate Bornstein är ute efter att försöka rädda tonåringar, men om hennes bok hamnar i fel händer, så kommer den oavsiktligt att rädda en massa vuxna också." Carol Queen "Genom att ställa sig skuldra vid skuldra med marginaliserade och förtryckta tonåringar ser Kate Bornstein mobbarna rakt i ögonen och visar oss hur vi ska lyckas stå emot dem. I stället för att proppa texten full med statistik och psykologisk jargong använder hon humor för att krossa de isoleringens och skammens murar som ofta förknippas med självmord. Denna 'verbala ögonkontakt' är revolutionerande och kan förändra livet." Sara Quin i förordet OM FÖRFATTAREN Kate Bornstein är en av USA:s mest originella författare och performanceartister. Född till ett kön men nu med ett helt annat, identifierar sig Kate varken som man eller kvinna. Hennes böcker Gender Outlaw: On Men, Women and the Rest of Us och My Gender Workbook: How to Become a Real Man, a Real Woman, the Real You, or Something Else Entirely har bidragit till att revolutionera vårt sätt att se på kön och identitet.
