The T in LGBT: 07/06/24

The T in LGBT by Jamie Raines is a memoir and handbook for figuring what it means to be trans. The author uses his own personal journey to outline how the process works.

I say process because the book includes the legal how-tos for name changing, gender marker changing. The chapters start with the basic, what is gender and what does it mean if you don't feel like your assigned gender, all the way through to what current surgeries are available.

As the author lives in the UK his information is specific to the UK when it comes to legalities and how the healthcare system works. Nonetheless, there's enough other useful stuff for people in other countries.
