Binary is the ultimate guide for understanding and dismantling the sex spectrum, the new cultural belief that sex exists on a continuum and that male and female are social constructs. By analyzing its 10 most popular arguments, Zachary A. Elliott reveals how the tenets of the sex spectrum deny evolution, development, and genetics. Using the primary biology literature, the book provides the listener with a comprehensive scientific understanding of how the two sexes are universal phenomena and how complex genetic networks consistently result in a simple yet profound outcome: male or female.

A.J. Bond ne vorbește din proprie experiență despre drumul pe care l-am putea parcurge alături de rușine fără să o lăsăm să ne domine, să ne închidă în prejudecăți sau să ne mintă că nu suntem integri ori demni de iubire și prețuire. Cu umor, căldură și exemple personale, Bond ne îndrumă pe drumul de la „Mai bine mor decât să fiu gay" la asumare și acceptare.

In January 1959, Art Copleston was escorted out of his college accounting class by three police officers. In a motel room, blinds drawn, he sat in front of a state senator and the legal counsel for the Florida Legislative Investigation Committee, nicknamed the “Johns Committee.” His crime? Being a suspected homosexual. And the government of Florida would use any tactic at their disposal—legal or not—to get Copleston to admit it.

Although he died at a heartbreakingly young age and appeared in only a handful of movies, James Dean revolutionized American manhood. As a celebrity and icon, he melded vulnerability with determination, sensitivity with strength, in a way that offered a bracing and—for some—threatening new vision of masculinity. His massive influence and the fascination he has always inspired are inseparable from his identity as a queer man whose complex sexuality shattered the norms of midcentury American society.

Internationally acclaimed human rights lawyer Keio Yoshida uncovers the ongoing battle for LGBTQ+ rights, how far we’ve come, and how much further we have to go. The right to life and the right to live life free from discrimination are rights that are codified and legally protected, but—unlike those on women’s rights, disability rights, children’s rights, freedom from torture, and racial discrimination—there is no dedicated and binding treaty or convention in international human rights law with respect to LGBTQ+ rights.

Love, Expanded is not a book about suffering, though the challenges queer people face are everywhere and real.
