商品描述

This book explores the histories and presents of gender dysphoria and euphoria as clinical and theoretical concepts as well as lived experience. It outlines how euphoria emerged as a concept, what its relationship to dysphoria is, and how it shows up in the body, in relationships, and as a framework for liberation. Using the concept of the Möbius Strip as an explanatory model of the interconnectedness of gender, the authors explore how gender as a concept encompasses multiplicity, duality, and non-linearity despite its supposed singularity. Rather than viewing euphoria and dysphoria as two poles of a continuum, this volume introduces the notion that they are in fact a blended experience which oscillates between distinctiveness and relationality. Critically engaging with clinical theory, gender studies, crip theory, spirituality, and political movements, this book is ideal for academics from a variety of fields, including psychology, sociology, gender studies, trans studies, cultural studies, as well as practitioners and clinicians, especially those who work with trans people.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討了性別焦慮和性別愉悅作為臨床和理論概念以及生活經驗的歷史與現狀。它概述了愉悅作為一個概念是如何出現的,與焦慮之間的關係,以及它如何在身體、關係中顯現,並作為解放的框架。作者使用莫比烏斯帶的概念作為性別互聯性的解釋模型,探討性別作為一個概念如何包容多樣性、二元性和非線性,儘管它被認為是單一的。本書並不將愉悅和焦慮視為連續體的兩個極端,而是引入了它們實際上是一種混合經驗的觀念,這種經驗在獨特性和關聯性之間擺動。本書批判性地參與臨床理論、性別研究、殘障理論、靈性和政治運動,適合來自各個領域的學者,包括心理學、社會學、性別研究、跨性別研究、文化研究,以及從事相關工作的實踐者和臨床醫生,特別是那些與跨性別者合作的人士。
