Summary:
"Through the voices of fifty-one trans men, Baker A. Rogers analyzes what it means to be a trans man in the southeastern United States. Rogers argues that the common themes that pervade trans men's experiences in the South are complicated by other intersecting identities, such as sexuality, religion, race, class, and place. This study explores the intersectionalities of a group of people who are often invisible, by choice or necessity, in broader culture. Rogers engages in debates about trans experiences of masculinity, "passing," and discrimination within LGTBQ spaces in order to provide a comprehensive study of trans men's experiences"-- Provided by publisher.
