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.

Bob Dylan & Janet Kling - The Fifth Sex: The Forbidden World...

Full title: "The Fifth Sex: The Forbidden World of the Hermaphrodites" by Bob Dylan and Janet Kling.

"All of the people involved in our research cases are functioning creatures. Regardless of their peculiarities, they have managed to either live with their problems or overcome them. As strange as their physical bodies may seem to the reader, they are nevertheless fellow members of our society and should be thought of as such. It is all too easy to make fun of others. Because sex is the primary motivation of nature, and because sex has been the whipping boy of distorted puritan philosophy, those who find themselves different than the masses are looked down upon by many of us. This is unwarranted bigotry."

"Sex is both clean and desirable. It is also great fun when practiced by those who have affection for one another. There is nothing evil in the discussion or the practice of sex. Someone’s excitement and lust brought each of us into being, and it is your excitement and lust which brought your children into being. Do you regret it or are you ashamed of it? For those who are different physically or mentally or emotionally, sex is equally desirable and attractive. They have to use the tools that they have to reach the same delights that you do. Could anything be more natural?"
