A NATIONAL BESTSELLERFrom a trans rights activist and athlete, an urgent book that changes the conversation about gender identity."I wish I had this book to guide my own journey years ago, but I am so glad it exists now. We need it!" -Dylan Mulvaney, actress and TikTok personalityAnti-transgender legislation is being introduced in state governments around the United States in record-breaking numbers. Trans people are under attack in sports, healthcare, school curriculum, bathrooms, bars, and nearly every walk of life. He/She/They compassionately addresses fundamental topics, from why being transgender is not a choice and why pronouns are important, to more complex issues including how gender-affirming healthcare can be lifesaving.With a relatable narrative rooted in science, and history, Schuyler helps restore common sense and humanity to a discussion that continues to be divisively coopted and deceptively politicized. He/She/They is more than a book on allyship; it also speaks to trans folks directly, celebrating radical trans joy."Courageous and heartwarming ... A must-read for anyone seeking understanding, compassion, and hope on the path to self-discovery." -Jazz Jennings, activist, authorWinner, 2023 Porchlight Business Book AwardsLonglisted, 2024 Carnegie Medals for Excellence in NonfictionForbes 30 Under 30
