Also feel free to recommend any fun fiction books that have lots of trans representation. I’m not a huge literature nerd but I do love a good story that’s a bit easy to read (I used to enjoy scifi and fantasy)
Uh Beyond Blue & Pink maybe?
I heartily recommend Gender Outlaw: On Men, Women and the Rest of Us by Kate Bornstein (2016 revision) can skip the theatre stuff if it doesn't jive with you, the rest is a great read.
Thanks, it seems interesting!
Reading It, was the first time in my life I felt seen
I’ll report back when I’ve read it
Do so, looking forward to hearing your thoughts
Her book "Hello Cruel World" was really helpful to me early into tiptoeing out of the closet. Big CWs for mental health and suicide, the whole thing is pretty much about suicide prevention and I'm sure some of the terminology is dated, but she's like, in her mid 70s, right? I remember thinking it was good and got a lot out of it but that was around a decade ago.
Yeah she's been around for a long time, there's also a follow up to Gender Outlaw called Gender Outlaws which is a recent book
I'll add that to my tbr, thank you ^^
Have you read the gender accelerationist manifesto? It's just an essay but it covers a lot of theory.

Everyone should read that
Ahh I think that’s the one I saw as stickied post! Will read it, thank you
Wait, I missed
Looks very literature but also interesting so I’ll give it a try!
I usually like a longer series of books because it allows me to get used to the setting and writing style but otherwise I’m not really sure
The Tensorate series seems like something I’d like! I’ll report back when I have a better idea of my literary tastes, I have a few books to read now
Awesome, I think I have a couple of other transmasc books I've been recommended but not got around to, if I dig. It would be rad to trade book recs and discuss with you
