520    $a Louie and their cat take you on a journey through the world of genderwithout claiming to have it all figured out or knowing the perfect definition for this widely complex subject. Gender is tricky to understand because its a social construct intersecting with many other parts of our identity, including class, race, age, religion. For a long time, people thought of gender as binary, now, were starting to understand its not that simple. Thats what this book is about: figuring out what gender means, one human being at a time, and giving us new ways to let the world know who we are. Boy, girl, either/or, neither/nor, everything in between: gender is a spectrum, and its hard to know where you fit, especially when your position isnt necessarily fixedand the spectrum keeps expanding. Thats where Rethinking Gender can help: it gives you a toolbox for empathy, understanding, and self-exploration. Louies journey includes a deep dive into the historical context of LGBTQIA+ rights activism and the evolution of gender discourse, politics, and lawsbut it also explores these ideas through the diversity of expressions and experiences of people today. In Rethinking Gender Louie offers a real-world take on what it means to be yourself, see yourself, and see someone else for who they are, too. $c Provided by publisher.
