Transsexuality in the Late 20th Century: How It Was and Wasn't. Sarah Seton M.d.

The Second edition of this little book is not your barn burning, best selling, gender techno-hype-philosophy. It quietly tells the story of what changing sex meant two generations ago. If there are some truths that endure, the book will be helpful to the perplexed suffering with gender identity disorder. It can equip you with some useful thinking tools to understand your bewilderment. Mainly for beginning transsexual/intersexual persons. Written by a medical doctor who has been through it all-both bad and good - as one of the trail blazer transwomen of the past century. The book discusses the major paradigm shifts of the 21st century from a psychiatrist's perspective in the last century. The book's value is in giving the new generation of transsexuals a taste of what homage is due the early trail blazers in sex reassignment. It also explains how transsexuality is a birth defect on a spectrum of intersex disorders and hence de-pathologises gender identity disorder. Second Edition.
