"Although transgender people are increasingly represented in academic studies and popular culture, they rarely have the opportunity to add their own voices to the conversation. In this remarkable book, Jackson Shultz records the stories of more than thirty Americans who identify as transgender. They range in age from fifteen to seventy-two; come from twenty-five different states and a wide array of racial, religious, and socioeconomic backgrounds; and identify across a vast spectrum of genders and sexualities. Giving voice to a diverse group of individuals, the book raises questions about gender, acceptance, and unconditional love. From historical descriptions of activism to personal stories of discrimination, love, and community, these touching accounts of gender transition shed light on the uncharted territories that lie beyond the gender binary. Despite encounters with familial rejection, drug addiction, and medical malpractice, each account is imbued with optimism and humor, providing a thoughtful look at the daily joys and struggles of transgender life. With an introduction and explanations from the author, this work will appeal to transgender individuals, their significant others, friends, family, and allies; health-care providers, educators, and legal professionals; and anyone questioning their own gender, considering transition, or setting out on their own transition journey." --

Au XXIe siècle, la notion de « transgenre » englobe au sens large du terme un groupe d’individus dans lequel peuvent à la fois se retrouver des travestis, des transsexuels ou des individus psychologiquement androgynes. Le mot semble donc concerner plusieurs types d’expression identitaire. D’une manière générale, ces individus considèrent que leur identité sexuelle, attribuée à la naissance, ne correspond en rien à leur « être intérieur ». Selon cette définition, une personne dite « transgenre » (opérée ou non) s’avère dans son quotidien en opposition totale avec les normes attendues de son sexe biologique. Dans son comportement, ses moeurs ou ses tenues vestimentaires, elle ne répond en rien aux attentes ou repères déterminés par la société. Or, de Pline l’Ancien à l’abbé de Choisy, du chevalier d’Éon au psychiatre français Jean Esquirol, témoignages et preuves affluent dans l’Histoire concernant cette question de l’ambiguïté de genre. Depuis près de deux millénaires, force est de constater que des hommes ou des femmes se sont retrouvés dans cette situation particulièrement perturbante : celle de ne pas réussir à se conformer réellement à leur identité sexuelle.
