Perhaps the biggest secret - the open secret - is that men and women are very different, especially when it comes to what they find "hot" or a "turn on"...both in and out of the bedroom. When men think about doing something "hot" for a woman, it usually involves some form of maneuver to be executed between her legs. But, that's not where she wants you to be.

Hasta el coño de lo trans. Así está Elizabeth Duval. Cansada de ser la jovencísima activista antes que la escritora o la filósofa. Está harta y de ese mismo aborrecimiento nace la rabia que mueve este libro, el último de sus esfuerzos para desprenderse del sambenito de lo trans. Pero esto no es una autoficción ni mucho menos un panfleto que pueda repetirse sin digerir. Después de lo trans es un ensayo visceral y ambicioso que acierta en la médula de las guerras culturales e identitarias de nuestro siglo.

Max Wolf Valerio crafts a raw, gripping, and poetic account of life before, during, and after injecting testosterone. Valerio's detailed observations about a lesbian transitioning from female to a heterosexual male highlights the physical and emotional differences between women and men, and alternately challenges and confirms readers' assumptions about gender. The Testosterone Files addresses the most fundamental issues of transitioning, from buying men's underwear to choosing a male name, as well as the profound subjects of male privilege, physical power, and existing as a male who was once distrustful and critical of men's intentions.

Esto no es un libro. Es un interruptor. Un dispositivo que corta la corriente. Y que a la vez permite que algo se ponga en marcha, que algo se encienda. Me gustaría que la lectura de este libro supusiera un "clic", un chispazo que interrumpiera una cadencia de mierda, una bajada de tensión en el movimiento LGTBQ que debe terminar cuanto antes.

Das Standardwerk zur queeren Geschichte Deutschlands von 1871 bis heute. Deutschlands queere Geschichte ist lange vernachlässigt worden. Und so scheint queeres Leben erst in den letzten Jahrzehnten zum Thema geworden zu sein – dabei kämpften Homosexuellenbewegungen bereits im Kaiserreich gegen Ausgrenzung und Diskriminierung. Wie lässt sich die Geschichte gleichgeschlechtlich liebender und gender-nonkonformer Menschen erzählen? Wie stellt sich deutsche Geschichte aus queerer Perspektive dar.

A liberating exploration of the queer divine in deities and figures of myth and legend that opens pathways for LGBTQIA+ people to revere the divinity within and create an affirming spiritual practice.

How we define good sex and the conditions that facilitate it will require a liberatory approach, because intersecting oppressions impose impossible sexual standards on most of us. Instead of intimate justice, we experience blocks to accessing the ingredients for erotic equity.

Este libro nace por la necesidad de relatar una realidad que emergió como discusión pública. Busca visibilizar en qué consiste "transitar", algo que viven diariamente las personas trans en nuestro país. Estos relatos buscan dar a conocer, acompañar y ser parte de las historias de quienes luchan por ser reconocidos por sus identidades, para que se entienda que este tránsito es un proceso personal e independiente, no exento de sentimientos de rechazo, soledad, dolor, penas y alegrías. Una experiencia vital que trasciende cualquier condición etaria, social y cultural.

En apenas cuatro décadas el "Movimiento LGTB" ha transformado España. Un país que en 1975 se declaraba mayoritariamente favorable a la eliminación de la homosexualidad a través de leyes represivas es hoy, gracias a la reivindicación política de lesbianas, gais, bisexuales y transexuales, uno de los Estados que más derechos y libertades garantiza a las personas no heterosexuales, y que en 2013 defendía en un 88% que la diversidad sexual y de género debe ser reconocida e integrada en la sociedad.

Workplaces have traditionally been viewed as “straight spaces” in which queer people passed. As a result, historians have directed limited attention to the experiences of queer people on the job. Queer Career rectifies this, offering an expansive historical look at sexual minorities in the modern American workforce. Arguing that queer workers were more visible than hidden and, against the backdrop of state aggression, vulnerable to employer exploitation, Margot Canaday positions employment and fear of job loss as central to gay life in postwar America.
