{"product_id":"9781509561995","title":"Becoming a Woman : Simone de Beauvoir and the Politics of Trans Existence","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis highly engaging analysis of the contemporary, global social and political landscape of trans antagonisms draws specific attention to \"gender-critical\" mobilizations of Simone de Beauvoir's account of becoming a woman in The Second Sex to advance and justify trans exclusionary positions. Through a careful examination and application of Beauvoir's philosophical and political commitments, Becoming a Woman compellingly explores the significance of her notion of becoming as not only affirmative of trans women, but also as an ethical demand to affirm trans possibilities. More than a reply to gender-critical readings of Beauvoir, this book develops an original, Beauvoirian ethics of gender affirmation offering that show why we ought to challenge trans exclusion and anti-trans movements.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rye Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54819592667512,"sku":"9781509561995","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/1368\/0730\/files\/9781509561995.jpg?v=1732208862","url":"https:\/\/ryebooks.co.uk\/products\/9781509561995","provider":"Rye Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
