Summary:

Instead of identifying as men or women, many people now identify as non-binary, agender, or genderqueer. Instead of identifying as gay or straight, many people now identify as bisexual, pansexual, or demisexual. There is an emerging shift away from identifying with the standard binary gender (male/female) categories. This shift has frightended some and been a source of confusion for others. This book presents a new way to understand gender and sexuality beyond the binary categories: the spatial theory.
