Gender: Your Guide: A Gender-Friendly Primer on What to Know, What to Say, and What to Do in the New Gender Culture

â€œAn invaluable resource for both new and veteran alliesâ€¦obvious and necessaryâ€ (Library Journal, starred review) information for everyone who wants to learn more about how to navigate gender diversity in todayâ€™s families, communities, and workplaces.

The days of two gendersâ€”male, female; boy, girl; blue, pinkâ€”are over, if they ever existed at all. Gender is now a global conversation, and one that is constantly evolving. More people than ever before are openly living their lives as transgender men or women, and many transgender people are coming out as neither men nor women, instead living outside of the binary. Gender is changing, and this change is gaining momentum.

We all want to do and say the right things in relation to gender diversityâ€”whether at a job interview, at parent/teacher night, and around the table at family dinners. But where do we begin?

From the differences among gender identity, gender expression, and sex, to the use of gender-neutral pronouns like singular they/them, to thinking about your own participation in gender, Gender: Your Guide serves as â€œa warm, inviting guide to a complicated areaâ€ (The Globe and Mail, Toronto). Professor and gender diversity advocate Lee Airton, PhD, explains how gender works in everyday life; how to use accurate terminology to refer to transgender, non-binary, and/or gender non-conforming individuals; and how to ask when you arenâ€™t sure what to do or say. It provides the information you need to talk confidently and compassionately about gender diversity, whether simply having a conversation or going to bat as an advocate.

Just like gender itself, being gender-friendly is a process for all of us. As revolutionary a resource as Our Bodies, Ourselves, Gender: Your Guide is â€œgreatly neededâ€¦an impactful tool for creating a world more supportive of people of all gendersâ€ (INTO! Magazine).
