Reviews

What makes Riki Wilchins' book important is the clear concise exposition of the ideas of gender norms and the complex intersections of genders and identities. What makes it necessary is how Wilchins then applies these concepts to those crucial policy arenas where we see them playing out in real time. -- Michael Kimmel, SUNY Distinguished Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies, Stony Brook University
