In France, as in many other countries, we are facing an unprecedented wave of transphobic attacks. Mond Ruaye, an activist actively involved in social and political struggles, documents this dangerous situation.

It is true that the vast majority of French feminist movements oppose transphobia. However, there are also some reactionary groups that now operate as a truly transphobic lobby, reproducing and discussing international debates, conflicts, and topics, which are especially propagated by the Right and Far Right. They also imitate their strategies: attacking the rights of transgender children and adolescents, with the ultimate goal of questioning the rights of women and LGBTQ+ individuals.

Ruaye, with her committed and pedagogically written book, uncovers these transphobic mechanisms to counter them more effectively.

A clear, uncompromising, and unexpectedly hopeful essay that thoroughly analyzes the attacks against trans people happening in France, especially after 2020.

An uncompromising indictment of the strategies of transphobic movements, with analyses based on Mond Ruaye's experience and supported by scientific and journalistic research, recounting how the "moral panic" developed, drawing inspiration from Great Britain and the United States.
