Before We Were Trans provides much needed context, nuance, and breadth to our understanding of human gender diversity throughout history and in different cultures. While people who we might now call transgender or LGBTQIA+ have always existed, Kit Heyam shows how both individuals' and societies' understanding of sex, gender, and sexuality are situational, multifaceted, and constantly evolving.-- Julia Serano, author of Whipping Girl and Sexed Up, " Before We Were Trans provides much needed context, nuance, and breadth to our understanding of human gender diversity throughout history and in different cultures. While people who we might now call transgender or LGBTQIA+ have always existed, Kit Heyam shows how both individuals' and societies' understanding of sex, gender, and sexuality are situational, multifaceted, and constantly evolving." -- Julia Serano, author of Whipping Girl and Sexed Up, "Kit Heyam shows us what radical inclusivity can really look like in their extraordinary global history of gender nonconformity, focusing on those, trans or not, whose gender identities aren't confined to categories of woman or man." -- Ms., Before We Were Trans enlarges our understanding of trans histories and highlights the beauty, complexity, and contradictions of doing historical work - all in a voice that invites the reader in, and not only teaches us what to think about trans lives in the past, but how to think about them.-- Hugh Ryan, author of The Women's House of Detention, "Trans activist Heyam debuts with an expansive and illuminating history of gender nonconformity...their desire for more gender nonconforming people to see themselves reflected in history is appealing and persuasive. This is an essential addition to trans history." -- Publishers Weekly, "A welcome and significant--and joyful, even--contribution to our cultural conversations on the malleability of gender and on gender nonconformity." -- Autostraddle, "[An] astute, self-aware and riveting study... Before We Were Trans is a book that moves far beyond mere representation by managing to be both intellectually rigorous and exciting to read. It makes for a vital contribution to our understanding of gender variance and its place in social and political history, all around the world." -- New York TImes Book Review, "This is such a searing, reflexive read - in conversation with the likes of Shon Faye, Akwaeke Emezi and Leslie Feinberg - that needs to be in everyone's hands expeditiously." -- Paula Akpan, journalist, " Before We Were Trans is a thoughtful, fun, and refreshingly readable romp through the history of gender variance before the invention of contemporary 'transgender' categories and concepts." -- Susan Stryker, author of Transgender History, "Heyam has assembled an inviting picture of trans, proto-trans, and trans-esque histories, from the king of Ndongo to the Public Universal Friend...a richly studied and trans-inclusive history." -- Nation, "An eye-opening study of the history of gender nonconformity...[a] highly informative text...the book will fascinate anyone interested in a subject that many readers likely misunderstand...A capable, worthy demonstration of how the history of disrupting the gender binary is as long as human history itself." -- Kirkus, " Before We Were Trans enlarges our understanding of trans histories and highlights the beauty, complexity, and contradictions of doing historical work - all in a voice that invites the reader in, and not only teaches us what to think about trans lives in the past, but how to think about them." -- Hugh Ryan, author of The Women's House of Detention

Synopsis
Agroundbreakingglobal history of gender nonconformity Today's narratives about trans people tend to feature individuals with stable gender identities that fit neatly into the categories of male or female. Those stories, while important, fail to account for the complex realities of many trans people's lives. Before We Were Trans illuminates the stories of people across the globe, from antiquity to the present,whose experiencesof gender havedefiedbinary categories. Blendinghistorical analysiswith sharp cultural criticism, trans historian and activist Kit Heyam offers a new, radically inclusivetrans history, chronicling expressions of trans experience that are often overlooked, like gender-nonconforming fashion and wartime stage performance. Before We Were Trans transports usfrom Renaissance Venice toseventeenth-centuryAngola, from Edo Japan toearly America, and looksto the past to uncover new horizons forpossible trans futures.
