I think this book is powerful and necessary in the gender conversation, but I think it took on too much and was too long. The author did a good job at trying to highlight the different intersections of gender, and I thought the organization of the chapters was well thought out. However, the jumping between interviewees within specific topics meant that it was hard to follow each individual's "story". Overall, I found this to be an accessible way to consider the topic of gender but I think the execution was a miss for me.

It was a good discussion of gender and I learned a lot (coming from a cisgender woman). It was really interesting to see how other people view their gender versus how I view mine and how similar it was.

This was a very thought provoking discussion of gender. I thought the comic was an interesting concept of delivering what the author learning during their interviews. I had hoped I'd learn a bit more. But when you consider the ever changing vocabulary with gender, it's not a bad thing that this graphic novel would leave me with more questions.
