Despite transgender rights being front and center in American politics, media, and culture, the pervasive myth that transgender children are a brand new generation--pioneers in a field of new obstacles and hurdles--persists today. [This book] shatters this myth, revealing that gender nonconforming children preexisted the term transgender and its predecessors and played a central role in the medicalization of trans people. Using a wealth of archival research from hospitals and clinics int he twentieth century, [the author] reconstructs the medicalization and racialization of children's bodies, foregrounding the racial history of medicine that excludes trans of color children through the concept of gender's plasticity, placing race at the center of the analysis and of transgender studies.

Transgender studies is the latest area of academic inquiry to grow out of the exciting nexus of queer theory, feminist studies, and the history of sexuality. Because transpeople challenge our most fundamental assumptions about the relationship between bodies, desire, and identity, the field is both fascinating and contentious. The Transgender Studies Reader puts between two covers fifty influential texts with new introductions by the editors that, taken together, document the evolution of transgender studies in the English-speaking world. By bringing together the voices and experience of transgender individuals, doctors, psychologists and academically-based theorists, this volume will be a foundational text for the transgender community, transgender studies, and related queer theory.

Mapping Multi-Genre Literary Frameworks for Trans* Studies: Without Permanence examines the socio-political contexts that have necessitated new, twenty-first century methods in transgender (trans*) counter-storytelling. Jesse Jack articulates the role that counter narration serves in representing the empirical needs and realities of gender-transing communities and in modeling negotiations between compliance and resistance, being out and going stealth. As the author contends, gender-transing communities in the West have been particularly constrained by exceptionalisms of permanence through which individuals who access permanent changes to gender markers on documents of origin (e.g., birth certificates) and embodiment (e.g., gender affirming care) are portrayed throughout the media, state surveillance protocols, and medical rubrics as authentic, compliant, and non-threatening in contradistinction to more ambiguously gendered, frequently racialized and sexualized persons. Permanence becomes the exception to the rule that ambiguity presents a threat. Jack argues that exceptional permanence emerged through several mutually reinforcing areas of study: anthropology and the archive, the genre of the trans* autobiography, sexology, migration and surveillance, and transgender exclusionary feminisms. Through literary criticism, this book examines emergent trans* counterstories that construct new intertextual and cross-genre literary forms designed to recognize ambiguity and mitigate the multifaceted demands and origins of permanence.

This volume contains the English translation of the seventeenth-century literary and archival materials about a Basque person who died under the name Antonio de Erauso (b. ~1580, d. 1650), bringing readers closer to an individual who could be considered a trans ancestor. Born into a noble family in San Sebastian, Spain, as Catalina de Erauso, Erauso lived most of their life as a man, serving as a soldier in Peru and Chile, and working as a muleteer in Mexico until their death in 1650. This book provides – for the first time – an English translation of texts related to Erauso: the contemporary play Famosa comedia de la monja alférez (The Famous Play of the Lieutenant Nun), contemporary Accounts (Relaciones) about Erauso, selected archival documents about Erauso’s Petition for a Pension to the Council of the Indies, and contemporary letters mentioning Erauso. This book presents early modern scholars working in English with new material essential to understanding the historical and literary figure of Erauso, and historical documentation that provides a glimpse into the terms Erauso (and others) seemingly chose for themselves.

The revelatory and urgent story of how an explosion of misogyny is driving a surge of mass and far-right violence throughout the West—from an internationally recognized extremism expert and media commentator What two things do most mass shooters, terrorists, or violent extremists have in common? Most of us know the first: they are almost always men or boys. But the second? They are almost always virulent misogynists, homophobes, or transphobes—even if they are also motivated by racism, antisemitism, or xenophobia. The antigovernment militiamen charged with plotting to kidnap and execute Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer used language saturated with misogyny, with one telling an FBI informant, “Just grab the bitch.” The men who killed scores at Virginia Tech, the Pulse nightclub, and a Maryland newsroom all had prior reports of stalking, domestic violence, or harassment of women. And in dozens of other incidents—from North America to Norway to New Zealand—an increasing number of misogynist incel (involuntary celibate) and male supremacist attackers have explicitly targeted and killed women, blaming feminism or sexual frustration with women as motivation for their attacks. Yet, despite all evidence, the bright red thread of misogyny running through these attacks is barely acknowledged by the media or even experts—and this failing leaves us powerless to stop the violence. In Man Up, Cynthia Miller-Idriss, a leading expert on extremism, addresses this crucial oversight head-on, revealing how an epidemic of misogyny—both online and off—and a patriarchal backlash are driving an exponential rise in mass and far-right violence. She also offers essential strategies that all of us—including parents, teachers, and counselors—can use to fight the rising tide of violence, beginning with recognizing the misogyny that pervades our everyday lives.

Covering American transgender history from the mid-twentieth century to today, Transgender History takes a chronological approach to the subject of transgender history, with each chapter covering major movements, writings, and events. Chapters cover the transsexual and transvestite communities in the years following World War II; trans radicalism and social change, which spanned from 1966 with the publication of The Transsexual Phenomenon, and lasted through the early 1970s; the mid-'70s to 1990-the era of identity politics and the changes witnessed in trans circles through these years; and the gender issues witnessed through the '90s and '00s. Transgender History includes informative sidebars highlighting quotes from major texts and speeches in transgender history and brief biographies of key players, plus excerpts from transgender memoirs and discussion of treatments of transgenderism in popular culture.

A history of trans medicine that uses Scandinavian sources to tell a global story. Standardizing Sex traces the emergence of trans medicine in Scandinavia in the twentieth century, exploring the construction and negotiation of medical expertise among medical professionals, patients, and activists in the media and government bureaucracy. The book combines the author’s analysis of medical records and other archival sources with oral history interviews with former patients, activists, doctors, psychologists, and civil servants. Physician-historian Ketil Slagstad uses the Scandinavian story of sex reassignment to anchor not only the role of the state but also bureaucracy and social rights. Scandinavian countries, he shows, played a foundational role in the emergence of trans medicine internationally. As a result, Standardizing Sex tells a transnational history of medicine that sheds light on a set of relations and problems that continue to impact discussions of trans medicine and trans rights around the world. Slagstad’s sources offer a rare opportunity to explore the emergence of trans medicine in action in the clinic, laboratory, waiting room, and operating room, as well as in the bureaucrat’s office, on the psychologist’s couch, and in the publications and meetings of activist groups. Together, these sources allow for the analysis of the increasingly complex negotiations of nosological criteria, medical knowledge, and medical practices in a formative period for transgender medicine. More generally, the book offers a story about the reshaping of the normal and the pathological in modern societies.

Achy Affects is the first affect text to refuse the emotional binary. CE Mackenzie’s insistence on recognizing the range of feelings, specifically their collisions and overlaps, is grounded in community outreach, formed through life writing and positioned at the intersections of health rhetoric, trans and affect theories, and composition studies. Organized into four affects—wonder, shame, shyness, and nostalgia—with a final chapter on ache, Achy Affects explores how capitalist logics make communities of people—specifically queer, trans, and drug using—into rhetorical spectacles for the purpose of productive futures. Mackenzie asks how an affective sensitivity toward ache can lead us into deeper compositions of selfhood. Ache, as a heuristic for writing without fix, for writing into the daily and chronic realities of our felt selves, complicates emotion by describing it as collaged, not binaried. Affect has too long relied on dichotomized notions of feeling, but by centering ache, Mackenzie attempts to skirt the trap of positive versus negative to instead release the human body from the spectacle it is forced to perform.
