Summary

When you are someone who falls outside of categories in so many ways, a lot of things are said to you. And I have had a lot of things said to me.

In None of the Above, Travis Alabanza examines seven phrases people have directed at them about their gender identity. These phrases have stayed with them over the years. Some are deceptively innocuous, some deliberately loaded or offensive, some celebratory; sentences that have impacted them for better and for worse; sentences that speak to the broader issues raised by a world that insists that gender must be a binary.

Through these seven phrases, which include some of their most transformative experiences as a Black, mixed-race, non-binary person, Travis Alabanza turns a mirror back on society, giving us reason to question the very framework in which we live and the ways we treat each other.

Such beautiful and vulnerable writing. It felt as though Travis was able to describe feelings I have had about my gender transition better than I could. Everyone should read this book.
