The Transsexual Empire
The Making of the She-Male
Janice G. Raymond
— Introduction to the 1994 edition of The Transsexual Empire: the Making of the She-Male
Review:
“Ostensibly, the transsexers’ are curing a disease; actually they engage in the religious and political shaping and controling of masculine’ and feminine’ behavior . Raymond’s development and documentation of this thesis is flawless. Her book is an important achievement.”
— Thomas Szasz, The New York Times Book Review
