The book addresses the heightened risk of violence faced by transgender and gender-expansive individuals, often rooted in societal hate and misunderstanding. It emphasizes the importance of discussing reproductive options, such as sperm banking, prior to medical procedures that could impact future parenthood. The need for compassionate healthcare providers who understand the unique challenges faced by gender-expansive people is highlighted, as well as the necessity for early detection of health issues, including cancer, to ensure better treatment outcomes.
