OK then. My first choice (in no particular order) is this really educational and thought provoking book about bringing up an intersex child and saying ânoâ to the scalpel urges of doctors who want to normalise the âproblemâ away. This is about placing the child front and centre
Recommendation #2 is Susan Strykerâs book about US trans history. Read it alongside #TransBritain and youâre ready to do a comparative dissertation!
Next up: âYes you are trans enoughâ is an honest and touching story about growing up trans and trying to transition when the muggles donât âget itâ. Great work by @OhMiaGod
Number 4 is this well-researched and professionally presented guide to modern best practice in treating trans people by @GenderBen. Read it and then give it to your local medical practice. God knows they probably need it!
Number 5 (in no order) is this cracking anthology by @Charlie_Craggs . If you want to understand the world of trans women just earwig in the advice weâve written for our little sisters.
Number 6 is another must-read. Trans Like Me by @cnlester takes every tired trans trope and dismantles it with factual knowledge and impeccable logic
And finally, read an historical trans autobiography, such as Roberta Cowellâs (1954) or Jan Morrisâs (1974). Read them with allowance for the periods they were written in.
OK. Thatâs it. Happy reading. Now I nominate @RozKaveney
