A Brief History of Transfeminine Literature and Invisible Lives-Book Discussion

A Brief History of Transfem Literature is exactly that: a very brief introduction to the history and scholarly work done by transfems. It is currently a work of progress, so we hope that it's a beginning of your journey. The website in incredibly rich and well researched, and it's a great starting point for those looking to branch out and learn more.

For those who finished the short website text, we suggest that you move into Invisible Lives: The Erasure of Transsexual and Transgendered People by Viviane Namaste. It's considered by many to be one of the strongest scholarly works of non fiction on the issue of trans erasure. It's very well sourced yet readable for a scholarly text.
