The trouble is, we're living in a world that insists we be one or the other.\" With these words, Kate Bornstein ushers readers on a funny, fearless, and wonderfully scenic journey across the terrains of gender and identity. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith a new introduction by the author\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn one level, \u003ci\u003eGender Outlaw\u003c\/i\u003e details Bornstein's transformation from heterosexual male to lesbian woman, from a one-time IBM salesperson to a playwright and performance artist. But this particular coming-of-age story is also a provocative investigation into our notions of male and female, from a self-described nonbinary transfeminine diesel femme dyke who never stops questioning our cultural assumptions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eGender Outlaw\u003c\/i\u003e was decades ahead of its time when it was first published in 1994. Now, some twenty-odd years later, this book stands as both a classic and a still-revolutionary work--one that continues to push us gently but profoundly to the furthest borders of the gender frontier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKate Bornstein divides their time between New York City and the Rhode Island shore.
