So how did he get here? In this remarkable, educational, and uplifting memoir, Jackson chronicles the ups and downs of growing up gender confused. Today, Jackson is a writer, YouTuber, and LGBTQ+ advocate living openly and happily as a transgender man. He barely remembers meeting anyone who was openly gay, let alone being taught that transgender people existed outside of punchlines. Growing up in Texas in the 1990s, he had no transgender role models.
Jackson didn’t share this thought with anyone because he didn’t think he could share it with anyone. Assigned female at birth and having been raised a girl, he often wondered if he should have been born a boy. When Jackson Bird was twenty-five, he came out as transgender to his friends, family, and anyone in the world with an internet connection.
An unflinching and endearing memoir from LGBTQ+ advocate Jackson Bird about how, through a childhood of gender mishaps and an awkward adolescence, he finally sorted things out and came out as a transgender man in his mid-twenties.
