So I mean knowing about the Comstock act after the fall of roe v wade, it makes sense how racial capitalist patriarchy was organized enough to do the book banning shit

But OMG as a trans woman it helped give me context to my internalized transphobia

Amazing telling of the author’s experience, thoughts, feelings, and learnings. I learned much from eir perspective. Highly recommend reading, especially for younger people who are working to discover and understand their own identities.

I knew that I’d feel so seen in this memoir and I was right. I wish I had read it sooner because I don’t know a lot of non-binary people who I could talk to about this sort of thing so it’s nice to see I’m not alone in a lot of feelings I’ve experienced over the years

I have never felt more understood then I did reading this. I’ve struggled a lot to figure out if I’m asexual, bisexual, and where I fall on the gender spectrum. I’m so thankful to the author for writing this!
