Review # 2 was written on 2015-07-22 00:00:00 Jaime Cooke A solid book, with some interesting essays and some more disappointing ones (the essay authored by Judith Butler is surprisingly boring, even though the language used is perfectly accessible; I'm also uncomfortable with her insertion of herself in what I see as a trans community issue, and her lack of substantive conclusion I think really highlights that.) The most thought-provoking essay for me was probably Jennifer L. Levi and Bennett H. Klein's "Pursuing Protection for Transgender People through Disability Laws," which manages to function both as a fascinating exploration of the topic as well as a sort of basic primer on disability protection laws. Also notable is Shannon Price Minter's "Do Transsexuals Dream of Gay Rights? Getting Real about Transgender Inclusion," and not just for the incredible title--it does a great job of summarizing historical exploration of the connection between gay and lesbian individuals and gender variance.
