Emerging Gender Identities: Understanding the Diverse Experiences of Today's Youth by Julia Sadusky, Mark Yarhouse
4.0
An important read for Christian leaders walking alongside young people in any capacity. If nothing else, chapter 8 is such a great resource. This book says so much of what I have believed and thought for so long but could never articulate. In a conversation that must be had so delicately, I appreciate how much nuance the book is able to have.
Cons: The first few chapters are very dense, especially for those not familiar with terms associated with the LGTBQ+ community. You definitely should take these slow if that is you. I also think that the language used around the 3 lenses and terming one a “disability lens” is already a bit outdated with new ways the disability community has begun to reframe disability.
