In this insightful and long-overdue book, Eris Young explores what it's like to live outside of the gender binary and how it can impact on one's relationships, sense of identity, use of language and more.
 
Drawing on the author's own experiences as a non-binary person, as well as interviews and research, it shares common experiences and challenges faced by those who are nonbinary, and what friends, family and other cisgender people can do to support them. Breaking down misconceptions and providing definitions, the history of non-binary identities and gender-neutral language, and information on healthcare, this much-needed guide is for anyone wanting to fully understand non-binary and genderqueer identities.
 
Market: Trans and non-binary communities including charities/organisations, support/community groups. Professionals (teachers, counsellors, therapists, educators) working with nonbinary and genderqueer people. General reader interested in gender issues
 
Young gives readers a succinct tour through nonbinary and genderqueer experience, including the importance of community, coming out or remaining closeted, dating and relationships, gender affirmation surgeries and treatments, and legal struggles, and helpfully concludes each chapter with recommendations, exercises, or discussion questions. For those new to the topic, this well-organized guide will get the ball rolling.
