Debunks the 21 most commons myths and misperceptions about transgender issues.

From Laverne Cox and Caitlyn Jenner to Thomas Beatie (‘the pregnant man’) and transgender youth, coverage of trans lives has been exploding-yet so much misinformation persists. Bringing together the medical, social, psychological, and political aspects of being trans in the United States today, You’re in the Wrong Bathroom! unpacks the twenty-one most common myths and misconceptions about transgender and gender-nonconforming people.

Authors Laura Erickson-Schroth, MD, a psychiatrist, and Laura A. Jacobs, LCSW-R, a writer and activist, address myths about trans identity (trans people are ‘trapped in the wrong body’), sex and relationships (most trans people do sex work and have HIV), health and safety (trans people are mentally ill and therapy can change them), and history and community (trans people and feminists don’t get along).
