Summary

The 21st century has seen very positive movement for LGBT+ rights. In the last few years, the overturning of DOMA, the SCOTUS ruling in favor of the Marriage Equality Act, American transgender politicians elected to office, and landmark moments such as Apple becoming the most valuable company in the world under the leadership of an openly gay CEO have advanced LGBT awareness and understanding. In a world full of LGBT questions, The ABC's of LGBT+ has the answers.

We are living in a postbinary world where gender fluency and awareness of gender identity and a real understanding of our LGBT family is essential. Ashley Mardell, one of the most trusted voices on YouTube, presents a detailed look at all things LGBT+ in this remarkable book. Along with in-depth definitions, personal anecdotes, resources, and more, The ABC's of LGBT+ is proof that it does get better every day in a world where people are empowered by information and understanding.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

A good starting point

I have been wanting to read this book since the beginning of 2016 it’s very factual but also cute and funny.

I was interested to see what it entailed although I think the intended audience is younger than myself and has several explanations that aren’t too complicated to understand if you don’t have any previous knowledge of the LGBT community it’s good for people starting to figure out their gender identity and sexuality but not so good for people who find themselves in the space between kind of knowing who they are but still in a grey area
