"This important new book by Alessandra Lemma provides a succinct overview of psychoanalytic understandings, approaches, and controversies around transgender identifications. Illustrated with case vignettes, Lemma provides an up-to-date synthesis of current research and a critical overview of psychoanalytic approaches to transgender identities, distilling some of the contemporary controversies about how to approach the topic in the consulting room. Lemma also outlines a psychoanalytically informed ethical framework to support clinicians working with individuals who request medical transitioning and distils the ethical challenges faced by clinicians in light of the current emphasis on gender affirmative care. Part of the Routledge Introductions to Contemporary Psychoanalysis series, this book is of great importance for psychoanalysts in practice, academics and all those with an interest in transgender identities and mental health"--

"A richly evocative collection of photographs by internationally renowned photographer Kike Arnal, Bordered Lives seeks to push back against the transphobic caricatures that have perpetuated discrimination against the transgender community in Mexico. Despite some important advances in recognizing and protecting the rights of its transgender community, including legislation against hate crimes targeting transgender people, discrimination still persists, and the majority of the often appallingly violent attacks against the LGBT community are against transgender women. In the highly personal profiles that make up Bordered Lives, including the first transgender couple to be married in Mexico and one of the country's most high-profile transgender entertainers, Arnal looks at seven individuals in and around Mexico City. He shows them going about their day-to-day lives: getting ready in the morning, interacting with family and friends, and devoting their lives to helping others in the transgender community. Moving in its honesty, Bordered Lives challenges society's preconceived notions of sexuality, gender, and beauty not only in Mexico but across the globe. "--

Das Thema "Transgender" wird hier mit grosser Offenheit präsentiert. Dieser Mann hat einen langen Weg hinter sich, um er selbst sein zu können und begeistert mit einer Lebensfreude, die sich sowohl in seiner Verletzlichkeit wie auch in seiner Stärke artikuliert. Er lässt nichts aus und weiss bei aller Intensität der emotionalen Achterbahnfahrt das Positive nicht zu vergessen. Je näher er seiner ureigenen Identität kommt, umso kraftvoller werden diese Impulse. Immer wieder gibt er anderen Raum, um ihre Sicht auf diese Transformation zu erzählen. Ein ganz hervorragender Beitrag über Widerstandskraft, der Transgender-Menschen sehr viel Kraft geben, aber auch allen anderen als Beispiel für ein starkes Leben dienen kann. (1)
