Publisher Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A short, compassionate, and deeply personal primer on gender’s expansive, multifaceted nature, from acclaimed author and gender non-conforming performance artist and speaker Alok Vaid-Menon.
“When reading this book, all I feel is kindness.”—Sam Smith, Grammy and Oscar award-winning singer and songwriter
In Beyond the Gender Binary, poet, artist, and LGBTQIA+ rights advocate Alok Vaid-Menon deconstructs, demystifies, and reimagines the social definition of gender, challenging the world to view it not in black and white, but in full color. Taking from their own experiences as a gender-nonconforming artist, Alok shows readers that gender is a flexible and creative form of expression—the only limit is your imagination.
Presented by Pocket Change Collective, a small book series with big ideas from today's leading activists and artists, Beyond the Gender Binary allows readers to express themselves freely, and encourages love in all its forms.
Customer Reviews
Engaging, Enriching, considerate of all
I enjoyed this book very much . I was engaged in the book the whole time throughout. I love how their writing has a way of enriching the reader and reflect and take pause in moments to consider a thought and give space to all thoughts and preconceived notions.
I feel that all people can read this and gain something beneficial from it.
Thank you Alok for writing this book .
A Gia t crock just like organized religion is
I found this book to be hogwash just as I did Ray Comfort’s “Scientific Facts in the Bible”.
One of those books
A must read, in my opinion every single person should. A heart warming exploration of self that hits my queer body to the core. From a fellow BCS native, ily Alok.
