She even has a few barbs reserved for feminists like herself. Each step of the way, she defends the indefensible claim that femaleness is less a biological state and more a fatal existential condition that afflicts the entire human race-- men, women, and everyone else. Or maybe she's just projecting.A thrilling new voice who has been credited with launching the "second wave" of trans studies, Chu shows readers how to write for your life, baring her innermost self with a morbid sense of humor and a mordant kind of hope." -- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Feminism. 650 0 $a Women $x Identity. 650 0 $a Females. 650 0 $a Sex role. 830 0 $a Verso pamphlets. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200806025140.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F089D0CE471C11EA8C4E586797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
