Gender Failure

Ivan E. Coyote and Rae Spoon are accomplished, award-winning writers, musicians and performers; they are also both admitted 'gender failures.' In their first collaborative book, Ivan and Rae explore and expose their failed attempts at fitting into the gender binary, and how ultimately our expectations and assumptions around traditional gender roles fail us all. Based on their acclaimed 2012 live show that toured across the United States and in Europe, Gender Failure is a poignant collection of essays, lyrics and images documenting Ivan and Rae's personal journeys.

Great Essays by Rae Spoon and Ivan Coyote about failing the binary gender system; societal expectations and the reality of diversity (among cis people as well).  Including stories about a mastectomy, the search for identity, pronouns, the Transgender Day of Remembrance and life on and behing the stage.
