Suddenly, A Man: A Trans Neutral on Androsexism and Misogyny

Suddenly, A Man depicts the radical perspective of Azriel Pierce, a trans neutral author wedged between the cisbinary and the transbinary. Pierce shares a new tactic for trans activism through personal experiences and language coining to reveal the ways nonbinarity is both feared and rejected in our society, taking the route of intersex liberation and gender binary abolition.

Pierce's intersectional experiences as a trans neutral of color are at a crossroads with current framework, and in this text, ziy develops the tools for other anti-oppressionists to begin decentering the binary. Ziy explores deep-rooted patriarchal kinships, how masculinity begets no rewards for anyone, and the casual racist history of gender and sex that goes unnoticed even in trans circles.

Not only is it a nonbinary perspective on gender and feminism, but it presents various means of destroying the patriarchy. Under this society, we are reared into models of cishet perinormative genders, erased of our cultural bounds by binarism, and taught to be obedient girls and boys. What happens when someone fails both girlhood and boyhood? If misogyny doesn't force one back into womanhood, and androsexism can't make someone a man, what then do the othered suffer? This book answers just that.
