From the groundbreaking trans scholar Susan Stryker, a provocative, genre-bending call to reconsider the story we tell about gender itself.
That gender is a hotly contested topic becomes ever clearer as antigender ideology continues to be mobilized by the far right and transgender people's lives are increasingly targeted. But what are we talking about when we talk about gender? Where did the concept itself come from, and where might it go?
In Changing Gender, the leading trans scholar Susan Stryker invites readers to ride along on her lifelong quest to uncover what gender means and does. She traces the gender concept's roots in grammar and tells the story of how it transformed into a battleground of the culture wars. From the origins of “Yankee Doodle” to acid trips in Joshua Tree National Park, from nineteenth-century phrenology to present-day anti-trans conspiracy theorists, Stryker finds surprising places to tune in to the origins, idiosyncrasies, and generative possibilities of the gender concept. Along the way, she weaves stories drawn from her lifetime as a pathbreaking historian, filmmaker, activist, and founding figure of transgender studies.
Poignant and deeply researched, lyrical and authoritative, Changing Gender is a book for our fraught time, exposing limiting assumptions about gender across the political spectrum and imagining what life might look like if some of those limitations were lifted. Ultimately, Stryker argues, to change gender is to change what it means to be human—and to change reality itself.
批評家のレビュー
“What a blast! Reading Susan Stryker’s rangy and original account of the evolution of the term “gender” from a central component within a grammatical system to a core principle of modern identity is moving, mind-blowing and fun. Stryker combines memoir with history and links personal anecdote to theory to great effect and in the process, she shifts the narrative from “changing gender” to changing the world. Spectacular!” —Jack Halberstam, author of Female Masculinity and Anarchitecture After Everything: A Trans Manifesto
"What do we talk about when we talk about 'gender'? Susan Stryker takes us on a fascinating journey, both personal and historical, into the many lives of this contested term. It's a journey full of surprises, which will reframe how we think about whatever gender is—and can be. For this trip, you couldn't ask for a better guide." —McKenzie Wark, author of Love and Money, Sex and Death
"In Changing Gender, Susan Stryker delivers a powerful and necessary account of how gender became a central battleground in modern political life, tracing the forces that have long sought to define, control, and weaponize identity. At a moment when trans people are facing coordinated political attacks and growing misinformation, this book cuts through the noise with clarity and authority—revealing not just how we got here, but what’s truly at stake." —Imara Jones, founder of TransLash Media
"A staggering achievement, and a gift to a world in desperate need of such a clear-eyed, compassionate diagnosis and manifesto for change. Changing Gender is the book I wish I could have written. Nobody does it like Susan Stryker." —CN Lester
