![]() ![]() I highly recommend listening to this one over reading it. It was read by Bornstein herself and her impassioned reading was moving and captivating. Listening to the audio book was so much better than just reading the book. She is a beautiful writer and an even better actor. However, the question of gender had always confused her. She went through a gender change to present as a female because that was the gender presentation that she felt the most comfortable with. Kate Bornstein is a gender something writer, actor, and director. Before settling comfortably in the “male” gender I thought that was the end of it. I spent some time, after discovering my gender dysphoria, without a gender, trying to understand what I was feeling and who I was. I was never without gender and the expectations that came with it, but I was allowed to grow as a person rather than a gender. My parents didn’t raise a boy or girl, they raised Vid, a person. ![]()
