In his first non-fiction book since coming out as a female-to-male transsexual, this completely up to date collection of essays, which have never before been published in book form, charts Califia's provocative and controversial take on sex, gender and politics. Often conflicting with not only the conservative mainstream, but with much of the lesbian, gay and feminist movements as well, in these essays Califia discusses anti-porn feminists, the failure of America's drug policy, and state repression of S/M and pornography. He also writes intimately of his decision to transition in gender against the backdrop of his mother's death from breast cancer.

Coming Soon - New Edition
As the gay mainstream prioritizes the attainment of straight privilege over all else, it drains queer identity of any meaning, relevance, or cultural value, writes Matt Bernstein Sycamore, aka Mattilda. This timely collection of essays by writers such as Patrick Califia, Kate Bornstein, Carol Queen, Charlie Anders, Benjamin Shepard, and others shows what the new queer resistance looks like.
