	Kate Bornstein: Gender Outlaw
		Kate Bornstein is a woman (she underwent a male-to-female sex change operation in 1986) with a mission: to dismantle the "gender system" on the planet as we know it.
		As a lesbian feminist writer, actress, performance artist and frequent guest on daytime television talk shows, she is dedicated to educating others about what she feels is the inherent oppression of a binary gender system that forces everyone to conform to one of only two gender options.
		Bornstein, who has described herself as a "gender terrorist," has invented what she calls a bodhisattva approach to unhinging ourselves from gender identity.

	Amazon.com: Gender Outlaw: On Men, Women and the Rest of Us: Books: Kate Bornstein (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Bornstein cleverly incorporates cultural criticism, dramatic writing, and autobiography to make her point that gender (which she distinguishes from sex) is a cultural rather than a natural phenomenon.
		Bornstein uses the term ``gender defenders'' to describe those who work hard to maintain the current rigid system of gender, and she claims that her ``people'' (i.e., the transgendered) are just beginning to challenge the system and to demand acceptance and understanding.
		Bornstein tells the truth of her story, and gives you the options of recognizing the truth for what it is, or continue living in a Fool's Paradise.
