What makes Riki Wilchins’ book important is the clear concise exposition of the ideas of gender norms and the complex intersections of genders and identitiesWhat 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
This is such a necessary book. Riki Wilchins provides deep insights on the impact of gender and identity biases and how our society views and confronts gender norms. It is hard to see how one can work effectively on systemic change and social justice without this knowledge or lens. -- Gina D. Dalma, Vice President of Government Relations, Silicon Valley Community Foundation
