Unzipping Gender: Sex, Cross-Dressing and Culture - Dress, Body, Culture
Charlotte Suthrell
Drawing on primary fieldwork, this book offers a cross-cultural study of transvestism through an examination of transvestites in Britain and the Hijras of India. The author tackles the question of whether or not transvestism is motivated primarily by sex or gender, and she challenges the straightforward binary divide in Western theories of gender.
