Rethinking gender : an illustrated exploration / Louie Läuger. by Läuger, Louie. The MIT Press, 2022.

ISBN:  9780262047234 (trade pbk) Uniform title:  Gender-Kram. English Description:  222 p. : chiefly colour ill. ; 26 cm. Notes:  "Originally published as Gender-Kram: Illustrationen und Stimmen zu Geschlecht © 2020, Unrast Verlag"--T.p. verso. Summary:  "A lively, informative, and engaging guide to gender by an author-illustrator who helps readers understand the multiplicity of answers to “What even is gender?”. Queer, cisgender, transgender, nonbinary, androgynous, maverique, intergender, genderfluid. Louie and their cat (a.k.a. “Cat”) take you on a journey through the world of gender -- without claiming to have it all figured out or knowing the perfect definition for this widely complex subject. Gender is tricky to understand because it’s a social construct intersecting with many other parts of our identity, including class, race, age, religion. For a long time, people thought of gender as binary: male/female, pirate/princess, sports/shopping. Now, we’re starting to understand it’s not that simple. That’s what this book is about: figuring out what gender means, one human being at a time, and giving us new ways to let the world know who we are. Boy, girl, either/or, neither/nor, everything in between: gender is a spectrum, and it’s hard to know where you fit, especially when your position isn’t necessarily fixed -- and the spectrum keeps expanding. That’s where Rethinking Gender can help: it gives you a toolbox for empathy, understanding, and self-exploration. Louie’s journey includes a deep dive into the historical context of LGBTQIA+ rights activism and the evolution of gender discourse, politics, and laws -- but it also explores these ideas through the diversity of expressions and experiences of people today."--Publisher.
