A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.
"Ladyboys of Thailand: An Anthropological Approach" is the English language version of "Ladyboys de Thaïlande: Une approche anthropologique" by Jean-Pascal Huvé and Franck Poupart.
It is estimated that between half a million and one million "kathoeys" live in Thailand. All of them, from a very young age, have had the feeling of being little girls trapped in boys' bodies and have never stopped assuming or claiming their femininity.
Why in Thailand, why so many, why so pretty?
The authors met and interviewed many ladyboys, whether they were veterinarians, escorts, cabaret dancers or political science graduates, but also with academics, an anthropologist specializing in Kathoeys in Chiang Mai or a researcher from the University of Liège whose laboratory studies the neuro-hormonal mechanisms underlying sexual behavior.
