A review by ifonlyihadcake
Gender(s) by Kathryn Bond Stockton

2.0

The information is good. The author writes in an artsy way that makes understanding hard. Her writing style often feels like she’d rather be writing poetry, but she accidentally got stuck writing this instead. At certain points in the book, the reader is expected to have very little knowledge of the subject; at other points, the reader is expected to have more than a basic understanding of gender. I thought this book was supposed to be education-focused? There at certain points at which the conclusions of arguments are assumed instead of achieved. I wish this book was better than it was, and I wish it was actually focused on being educational.
