The whole book serves a narrative around class conflict the upper classes subjugated the lower classes in many ways, one of which was through destroying transgender experiences. Feinberg is not an historian, and it shows. It is part history book, part autobiography, but unfortunately it is still one of the few mainstream books on transgender history. It does not store any personal data.I hate Leslie Feinberg’s Transgender Warriors.

The book does offer an enlightening album of singular people: a female transvestite who is sexually attracted to gay men a couple consisting of a female cross-dresser and a male-cross-dresser. Though she draws many conclusions from this and other examples of cross-dressing rebellion through the ages, she fails to consider that the readiest disguise for a married man is his wife’s clothing. Feinberg, for example, expends little effort in looking into why a notorious band of male Welsh revolutionaries calling themselves `Rebecca and Her Daughters’ dressed as women to destroy tollbooths in the mid-19th century. But her historical perspective can be sketchy. She also shows the often frantic and neurotic ways Western society clings to rigid notions of gender, while at the same time she describes (though not fully enough) how these notions shift radically from age to age. Feinberg, a surgically and hormonally transgendered female-to-male and the author of the novel `Stone Butch Blues’, here effectively pummels several old saws about gender, such as that there were two or three centuries in ancient Greece that constituted the golden age of gayness (“How happy were the gay slaves?” she asks).
