An orientation or a life choice? Despite differing opinions, transgenderism has lost much of its stigma over the past decade or so - though perhaps none of its shock value. Nevertheless, the door is open for a reformulation of the hysterical question, "Am I a man or a woman?"" "Utilizing rich clinical vignettes and elements of Lacanian theory, Patricia Gherovici demonstrates how the transgender discourse has both reoriented psychoanalytic practice and reframed debates about gender in American society at large. She traverses historical, theoretical, and clinical grounds to explore what has been termed the "democratizing of gender"--For what could be more democratic than the choice of one's own gender, now able to be changed on demand?" "Arguing for the depathologization of transgenderism, Please Select Your Gender aims to revise current notions of human sexuality in general. In doing so, it challenges the theory and practice of psychoanalysis with questions typically addressed only indirectly, but which are themselves transforming how analysis is done, advancing new ideas for the clinic that can be extrapolated to social and intellectual contexts in an effort to engage the broader dialogues of gender and sexuality."--Jacket. 001398285 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001398285 650_0 $$aTransgender people. 001398285 650_0 $$aSex (Psychology) 001398285 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGherovici, Patricia.$$tPlease select your gender.$$dNew York : Routledge/Taylor & Francis Group, c2010$$z9780415806152$$w(DLC) 2009024937$$w(OCoLC)406946031 001398285 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001398285 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=646543$$zOnline Access 001398285 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:445863$$pGLOBAL_SET 001398285 980__ $$aEBOOK 001398285 980__ $$aBIB 001398285 982__ $$aEbook 001398285 983__ $$aOnline 001398285 994__ $$a92$$bISE
