Crossing by Deirdre N. McCloskey

jamiebooksandladders's review

3.0

I quite enjoyed this as a means of learning and understanding more about transgender individuals and their similarities and differences when transitioning, but the style of writing was horrendous to me and the gender roles that McCloskey imposes upon herself and appears to judge other women based on are not healthy. I don't think this should be read alone, but alongside Roxane Gay's "Bad Feminist" or even Kelly Jensen's edited volume "Here We Are: Feminism For The Real World" so if you do read this and don't fall into all the things McCloskey (sort of) says you need to in order to be a Woman, don't fret.
