Keeping a kid's gender secret...

[Eve]

I read a book called Stone Butch Blues which I liked very much at the time, don't know how I'd feel about it now. It covered a broad range of gender and sexuality issues. If nothing else it convinced me that these deeper issues should be subject matter in education systems. Of course, not American education systems. They'd just fuck it up. 

Stone Butch Blues has become a tiny bit outdated by today, I think, but damn did Leslie Feinberg open my eyes to an entire piece of queer culture that I barely understood at the time.

That's what I figured, I read it about a decade ago.




Do you have any recommendations? It's still a subject that my brain clings to.
What did you think of her other one, the non-fiction one.
I liked the bit about the Church supposedly burning a rooster at the stake for laying in egg.


ETA: It was the same for me about queer culture. It instilled this INSTArage and propensity for sermonizing anyone stupid enough to engage in passive, socially acceptable homophobia near me.
