By Genny Beemyn and Susan Rankin, 2011
This groundbreaking study by Genny Beemyn and Sue Rankin is the first to examine the full diversity of the transgender community– not only those who are transsexual but also the growing number of individuals who identify their genders in nonbinary ways. Through surveys and interviews with a huge sampling of transgender people from across the country, it is the first major study to combine methodological rigor with an insider’s grasp of the nuances and complexities of transgender lives.
