Most of the essays, poems and stories in this book were written between 1995 and 2005, during the first ten years after I did what is variously described as changed my sex, lost my mind, altered my public performance of gender, killed the person I was, headed straight for hell, became the person I always was or simply pissed off just about everyone. The theme that ties everything together in this volume is gender, hence the title. A section has been added to this edition with material from 2005 to 2014.
