By Evelyn Blackwood This book is a compelling view of sexual and gender difference through the everyday lives of tombois and their girlfriends (“femmes”) in Padang, West Sumatra. Tombois are masculine females who identify as men and desire women; their girlfriends view themselves as normal women who desire men. Evelyn Blackwood shows how these same-sex Indonesian couples negotiate transgressive identities and desires and how their experiences speak to the struggles and desires of sexual and gender minorities everywhere.   Paperback: xii 254 pages ISBN: 978-979-25-1006-5 Language: English Direct message by WA
