Gender Hurts

- A Feminist Analysis of the Politics of Transgenderism
Af: Sheila Jeffreys Engelsk Paperback
Tjek vores konkurrenters priser

It is only recently that transgenderism has been accepted as a disorder for which treatment is available. In the 1990s, a political movement of transgender activism coalesced to campaign for transgender rights. Considerable social, political and legal changes are occurring in response and there is increasing acceptance by governments and many other organisations and actors of the legitimacy of these rights.

　

This provocative and controversial book explores the consequences of these changes and offers a feminist perspective on the ideology and practice of transgenderism, which the author sees as harmful. It explores the effects of transgenderism on the lesbian and gay community, the partners of people who transgender, children who are identified as transgender and the people who transgender themselves, and argues that these are negative. In doing so the book contends that the phenomenon is based upon sex stereotyping, referred to as ''gender'' – a conservative ideology that forms the foundation for women''s subordination. Gender Hurts argues for the abolition of ‘gender’, which would remove the rationale for transgenderism.

　

This book will be of interest to scholars and students of political science, feminism and feminist theory and gender studies.
