27 men who transitioned from female-to-male illuminate their roles as male community members: Fathers, sons, brothers, husbands, boyfriends, friends, and mentors. Offering an incredible range of cultural, class, ethnic, spiritual, and generational backgrounds, their writing addresses topics including birthing and raising children, gay male sexuality, facing racism, and finding solace in religion.
Not since Max Wolf Valerio’s 'The Testosterone Files' and Jamison Green’s 'Becoming a Visible Man' has nonfiction seen such thorough and sensitive explorations of manhood, masculinity, and male embodiment—and never in a collection with such a diversity of voices. Contributors include established writers such as Valerio, Aaron Devor (author of 'FTM: Female-to-Male Transsexuals in Society') and Ryan Sallans (author of 'Second Son'), as well as exciting new authors.
