- Description
- Drawing on primary fieldwork, this work offers a cross-cultural study of transvestitism through an examination of transvestites in Britain and the Hijras of India. The author tackles questions like: Is transvestitism motivated primarily by sex or gender? How does culture shape notions of sexuality and gender? Why are transvestites in the West often seen as 'deviant' or 'perverse,' while they are accepted in other societies? What are the implications for the categories of 'male' and 'female' when considering transvestism? She also pays attention to the importance of dress and the artefactual nature of the construction of the self through clothing.

- Description
- This publication takes note of a proliferation of phallic feminine figures in disparate North American and European texts from the end of the nineteenth century onward. Brooks takes up the textual figure of the phallic woman where Freud locates it, in the imagined mother that the little boy, in fantasy, credits with a penis of her own. It traces this phallic-woman motif backward to the sexological case study, and forward to newspaper accounts of testosterone-taking third-sexers. Brooks examines both high and low literature, pornography, postmodern theory, and writing that would seem to answer Lacan's injunction to move 'beyond the phallus'.

- Description
- Drawing on the work of feminist and psychoanalytic theorists including Judith Butler, Gayatri Spivak and Luce Irigaray Tyler explores what it would mean to take seriously the notion that gender is an artifice, that one's identity is in fact a socially mandated impersonation.
