A short and succinct primer. I wish it was more in-depth but it's worth a read if you're looking for a basic understanding of non-binary and gender non-conforming people, and how the social construct of a gender binary limits and harms all of us.

3.5

A little too fast-paced for me, and the writing style (particularly the constant cutting up of sentences) distracted me a lot. 

A good introduction though, and as someone nonbinary, the section about normal vs normativity was still thought-provoking.
