Trans Kids is a trenchant ethnographic and interviewbased study of the first generation of families affirming and facilitating gender nonconformity in children. Earlier generations of parents sent such children for psychiatric treatment aimed at a cure, but today, many parents agree to call their children new names, allow them to wear whatever clothing they choose, and approach the state to alter the gender designation on their passports and birth certificates.Drawing from sociology, philosophy, psychology, and sexuality studies, sociologist Tey Meadow depicts the intricate social processes that shape gender acquisition. Where once atypical gender expression was considered a failure of gender, now it is a form of gender. Engaging and rigorously argued, Trans Kids underscores the centrality of ever more particular configurations of gender in both our physical and psychological lives, and the increasing embeddedness of personal identities in social institutions.

The book has a lot of important points, but I felt like some arguments were repeated too much. I wanted more diverse examples from different cultures too. Overall, still a good read for anyone interested in gender topics.

Essential reading for open-minded parents
I loved how this book delves into the pressures kids face regarding gender. It’s informative and really challenged some of my own biases. It’s a solid resource for anyone looking to foster an inclusive environment at home.

A must-read for understanding gender today
This book offers such a nuanced look at how kids are influenced by gender expectations in our modern society. It helped me have much deeper conversations with my daughter about her identity. The examples are relatable and the research is thorough, which I appreciate!

Not what I expected, kind of disappointed
I had high hopes for this book but it felt more like a lecture than an engaging discussion. It lacks personal stories that would make the research more relatable. I wish I had chosen something else.

Thought-provoking but a bit dense
While the content is really important, I found some sections a bit hard to get through. It’s packed with info, which is great, but it could have used simpler language in parts. Still, I think this book is crucial for parents wanting to support their kids.
