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.

G. Masullo & M. Coppola - Affettività invisibili

Original title: "Affettività invisibili: Storie e vissuti di persone e famiglie transgender" (Invisible affectivity: Stories and experiences of transgender people and families) by Giuseppe Masullo and Marianna Coppola.

The concept of family has acquired, over the decades, greater forms of legitimation on the scientific level even if, however, the paths of analysis have emphasized a traditional position that does not contemplate homoparental families. This starts from the assumption that the parental capacity corresponds to a given type of family, and not to its main function of caring.

This has also led to leaving on the margins, the lives as well as the socio-political problems encountered by individuals who exist outside the most normalized categories (those of cisgender gays and lesbians), and who remain outside (by choice or by constraint) from the question of parenthood and marriage (civil union).
