Do you know who you are?
What lies beneath the surface?
Ever get the feeling that something
Deep down wasn't quite right?

I did.

Who are you to tell me otherwise?
The birthers, who think your external
Shell defines your whole identity, while
Pointing to the sky to show us the answers.

We're out and we're here to stay.
Deal with it.

November 5, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

The Transgender Manifesto is everything you would expect based on the title and more. Malone is unabashedly a transgender woman, and this book is her rebuttal against the naysayers. To everyone struggling to understand what it means to be transgender, who may be skeptical due to religious or other convictions, this book provides insight into the practical reality of what being transgender is like, including the many unique obstacles that transgender people encounter in daily life. Malone understands the counterarguments and gets to the heart of the matter, deftly turning the arguments on their heads. A prime example of this is the mental health chapter, turning what is intended as an insult into a defense of therapy as a valuable means for transgender individuals to understand themselves. This book invites a conversation, even an argument.

At the same time that this book is intended for the skeptic audience, this book is also meant to be uplifting to the LGBTQ+ audience. The Transgender Manifesto provides inspiration for anyone struggling to accept their identity by providing what they are denied by the other side — validity. That is the message of the Transgender Manifesto: you are valid, you are accepted, and you are loved. I hope that young LGBTQ+ kids, and especially transgender kids, can read this and know that fact, and may it give them courage and strength to face the world themselves.

All in all, The Transgender Manifesto is combative, yet abundantly heart-felt, and Malone’s words are what America needs to read today. No matter where you are right now in life’s journey, you will find something in this book to ponder and to share.

Incredible Read

November 26, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Ian Thomas Malone's take on trans-culture is refreshingly honest, but this book is much more than than just an LGBT opinion piece, opening her aperture to take a broader view of Western society, its politics, social landscape, and media. This is an easy read since she dissects each of her points in vignettes. I would recommend this book to all adult readers.

A raw, honest, passionate and often witty rebuttal to bias arguments facing transgenders and the LGBT community. Ian writes, "We don't want extra rights just the same ones that everyone else is supposed to be afforded." The novel is broken into small vignettes making it am enjoyable fast read.

A great read and contribution to Transgender Literature.

May 31, 2018

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

It is becoming less difficult to have conversations that should be common place, but still go rejected, time and time again by the heteronormative, cisgender population who remain uncomfortable with anything that is not "traditional". This book is a gift for all minority groups. It carries a conversation on a grand scale, and with intimate moments, that bring to light a number of the hypocrisies that the transgender community must confront daily. Having been in a class with Ian, I knew I had to read this. Objectively speaking, anything short of wonderful, would be an understatement. Truly. She dominates this one.

I really enjoyed the book. I found it refreshing and informative, Much like my own book Ian uses a series of pointed articles that enable the reader to be more attentive with regard to details. I wish you all the best Ian and thank you for sharing the book and your knowledge with me. I suggested your book to several cisgender friends who are allies

In her usual dynamic and witty style, Ian helps us understand what being transgendered means and debunks many myths. Engaging, informative, and very personal.

...real, everyday life arguments to back up her assertions, opinions and beliefs.

This book hit me initially as rather aggressive in how short and succinct the 'chapters' were and in how blunt, to-the-point and in-your-face (not a criticism at all) the author's responses were. Some chapters are no more than a page long, but each and every one takes stuff that heterosexuals, bashers, birthers, the uneducated, the uninformed and others might interpret a certain way and shows them from a lived, i.e. a transgender person's perspective.

Some of it is very sad, some has snark and humour, but all of it made me think and feel. I happened to finish the book on the International Day of Transgender Remembrance, which was unintentional, but which culminated in me reading about some of the transgender people who've been murdered in the US this year, and I think I got hit by a deluge of information, in a good way.

At first, I admit that the author's 'aggression', as I perceived it, turned me off a little, but I went nosing on her website and as I read more and more, I realised that she is just passionate about her life, about experiences good and bad that she's either experienced or known via others. The examples cited, of so many things that het people take for granted, but that a transgender person can't, were humbling. It saddened me and also made me appreciate the 'rights' that I have, simply for being born het and in the UK. Compared to the US, where not all states allow transgender people to change their sex on their birth certificates post-transition, the UK has many protections and rights for all its people. Would that this happened all over the world.

The author puts out some great truths in this book - I just hope that people read it, talk about it and make lots of noise about it. It's the kind of book that 'tells it as it is' and it needs to be read to educate people.
