In 2014, Maia Kobabe, who uses e/em/eir pronouns, thought that a comic of reading statistics would be the last autobiographical comic e would ever write. At the time, it was the only thing e felt comfortable with strangers knowing about em. Now, Gender Queer is here. Maia's intensely cathartic autobiography charts eir journey of self-identity, which includes the mortification and confusion of adolescent crushes, grappling with how to come out to family and society, bonding with friends over erotic gay fanfiction, and facing the trauma of pap smears. Started as a way to explain to eir family what it means to be nonbinary and asexual, Gender Queer is more than a personal story: it is a useful and touching guide on gender identity—what it means and how to think about it—for advocates, friends, and humans everywhere.






对不起跑题了...
很温暖很真实的记录,希望自己一直能做到尊重他人的习惯而不是因为自己的粗心不在意而伤害到身边的人!
e一方面渴望与众不同,一方面却不敢冒缺乏群体认同的风险。最终接受了洗脑却认为是自己的选择。内心不够强大,仍然为别人叫错其性别而光火。
e觉得自己一路走来,很难。于是作此书以激励同侪。其实,e走的是一条简单的路,因为这条路需要别人为e而改变。
什么更难? 认识现实。什么最难?接受现实。
漫画本身也画得超好,寥寥几笔就可以感受到作者复杂的思绪和挣扎~最喜欢其中螺旋贝壳的一页,纷杂的思绪一圈一圈,太传神了~
