Summary
"Gender is now a global conversation, and one that is constantly evolving. Guided by professor and gender diversity advocate Lee Airton, PhD, you will learn how gender works in everyday life; how to use accurate terminology to refer to transgender, nonbinary, and/or gender-nonconforming individuals; and how to ask when you aren't sure what to do or say. Just like gender itself, being gender-friendly is a process for all of us. [This book] invites everyone on board to make gender more flexible and less constricting: a source of more joy, and less harm, for everyone." -- Back cover
