Reviews

Sports, supposed to be healthy, popular recreation and a source of goodwill, have recently become a site of extraordinary prejudice against some participants, on grounds of gender non-conformity. In this clearly-written and impressive book, trans and nonbinary athletes describe the real-life consequences of bans and oppressive regulation. Together with sports scholars, they consider current resistance and future ways to make sports truly fair and inclusive. -- Raewyn Connell, Author of Gender: In World Perspective
