Résumé
Is Gender Fluid ? When we are born, we are each assigned a biological gender based on our physical anatomy. But why is it that some people experience such dissonance between their biological sex and their inner identity ? Is gender something we are or something we do ? Is our expression of gender inborn or does it develop as we grow ? Are the traditional binary male and female gender roles relevant in an increasingly fluid and flexible world ? This perceptive, stimulating volume assesses the connections between gender, psychology, culture and sexuality, and reveals how individual and social attitudes have evolved over the centuries.
The Big Idea series Innovative and informative, provocative and persuasive, The Big Idea series takes a brand new look at the fundamental ideas that make such a big impact on our lives and our world today. The unique visual approach and intelligently layered text make complex concepts easy to understand and give you all the tools you need to join the debate.
