Inhaltsangabe

The bestselling author of Gender Queer presents an illustrated guide to chest binding, blending real-life stories and research-backed advice from University of Michigan professor Sarah Peitzmeier.

“A unique, thoughtful, and evidence-based book perfect for individuals of any age considering binding or for readers interested in understanding the practice more thoroughly.”—Booklist, starred review

“Provides health information in a readily accessible manner that is otherwise difficult to find in science-based resources.”—School Library Journal, starred review

Breathe arose from the need for a resource for folks considering chest binding as gender-affirming care. Dr. Sarah Peitzmeier interviewed twenty-five people of different ages and backgrounds about their journeys with binding, and then she and Maia Kobabe combined excerpts from those interviews with evidence-based resources on binding into this extremely accessible guide.

This book is both a practical resource for trans and nonbinary folks and an engaging and perspective-broadening read for anyone interested in what it means to be on a journey of expressing one’s gender in ways that are joyful, healthy, and affirming.
