This was such an incredibly transformative book for me. While it was written with a practitioner audience in mind, I really think this would be a superb text for anyone engaging with gender and sexuality in deeply personal and creative ways. It illuminated things for me in a way I'd understand "academically" before. And as I read it, I began to understand things in a deeply personal, magical, and spiritual way. This book is a treasure and a gift.
The introductory polemic is superb; i wish the author would read it and reconsider his support of people derided as "fascists" and "transphobes", and rejoin the actual left. But the amount of binary, cissexist thinking throughout the rest of the book suggest that he won't. Nevertheless, it has a few great ideas, and the writing is beautifully florid. Pirate it.
